A song is never one thing. Songs constantly evolve, often changing considerably as they progress from my imagination, to my writing notebook, and then the recording studio. Even after they are documented on an album, the songs continue to change when I take them on the road. Across repeated performances the tempos shift, lyrics are tweaked, and the dynamic range is widened. And, of course, the most crucial part of this process is you. The audience often reveals new facets of the material to me, and my songs never feel truly ‘finished’ until I get a chance to play them on tour.
