about

On September 17th, 2022, I performed versions of songs from my vast catalog in front of a very intimate crowd at Evelyn Chapel, on the campus of Illinois Wesleyan University. It was a profoundly affecting experience for me, since many of the songs were composed at Illinois Wesleyan, and others had not been performed in some time. The space was at once sacred and intimate, and provided the perfect setting for these deeply personal songs. Enjoy.
