Concept Vox Artis is a quiet triumph. The original concept was to do with striving for unhindered expression, but there’s a great deal of uncertainty running through it, too. A contradiction? Perhaps. But this was the very reality I was living in the six confusing years it took to complete. The phrase Vox Artis is … More Vox Artis: Release Day
It’s finally happening! I’m showing Vox Artis to the big wide world! This week I made my version of Andrew Huang’s I Might Have Heard Your Words available for free download from bandcamp.

In some ways I’m glad it’s taken this long, and that I did it after my work with Glitter Punch Project, because I’m a lot better at vocal delivery … More Vox Artis: Getting Over It
For a long time I’ve sort of done half a job when it comes to the marketing and promotion of my music releases. Sometimes I made grand plans for promoting an album or EP, but one thing or another happened and I was lucky if I was even able to finish recording it. This happened … More Potential Energy: My Pre-Promotion Strategy
