I believe that music is magic. Melodies spring forth on running legs to create something from nothing in an instant. Voices alchemize some of the most miserable things we feel into beauty. The right song at the right time changes someone’s life or saves it. Music helps us remember when we’re old and learn when we’re babies. All our lives we experience music in community.

I also believe that sometimes, if we’re lucky as artists and willing, we tap into the divine. Channels for the truths that are drifting through the ether —— tapping us on the shoulders and asking us to speak them. And should we choose to accept, I think we can bring those truths forward.

I’m just somebody who thinks someone should know.
