The Ghost of Music Past
Sometimes when he doesn't have access to a guitar, we joke that his first hit album will be all about "The Mup" - which is my nickname so sweetly given due to the way I walk around or stoop to admire the rocks. "Mup, mup, mup, mup, mup, mup," he'll declare, and then he picks up an accoustic again and I'm reminded just how silly our jokes about Mupland truly are.

I've Aged, but My Taste in Music Hasn't
There's a scene in New Girl where Nick Miller (played by the criminally underrated, Jake Johnson) says "I like getting older. I feel like I'm finally aging into my personality." I have never related to anything more than I've related to that line.

Songs On My Grief Playlist
Crying is good for you. The alternative to crying is holding it all inside. That may work for a while, but eventually, the tears will come. I know this as a widow who experienced sudden loss. I also know this as a counselor.

In A World Gone Mad, Music Is My Savior
With so much static in our ears, it's hard to find some peace. 2020 has definitely been one for the record books. Through it all; the virus, the lockdowns, the racial disparities, the riots, the fires, and then Nov. Music has given me peace...

Proud to introduce Taj Farrant guitar player
I first discovered this kid about a year or so ago, I had to see more and hear more. As I did it became apparent that this kid had some serious talent as well as a bright future. In this video Taj explains how he was introduced to playing the guitar, and how he came to pursue his dream. This platform was a wonderful stepping off point for him. Many of his fans believed that his audition was golden buzzer worthy. Many of his fans felt he deserved to be in the finals of this competition. Like many fans did we all sent messages of support and encouragement to our young star. He publicly thanked Australia's Got Talent for allowing him to be on the show. Mature young man. Before this appearance he was featured on the Ellen show. Since this appearance he has performed with many stars, the most prominent name would be Carlos Santana. If Carlos Santana allows you to share the stage with him, then that is a major endorsement of anyone's talent. I am sure it is a moment young Taj will never forget.

Dear Sia, you broke my heart.
Dear Sia, I first started listening to your music when I was fifteen. I had to do a jazz routine to "Clap Your Hands", and I immediately fell in love with your sound. When "Titanium" was released, I was in a state of depression and the lyrics gave me the strength I needed to keep moving forward. "Breathe Me" was one of the songs that I would listen to right before I fell asleep, and it made me feel like I was falling slowly and gracefully. I've lost count of how many times I've seen the music video for "Chandelier", and it made me feel proud of my weirdness. "The Greatest" was released the year I came out of the autism closet, and it had the biggest impact on me. Not only did I use the song for a one-woman show about autism the following year, but I also once ranked it at Number One on my list of Autism Anthems. Heck, "I'm free to be the greatest" was in my Instagram bio for four years. I loved it so much and I didn't see the point in changing it until now.
