I just released a new album, Naki’s Woods, which is intended to be a companion piece to the No Other Life suite, released separately in 2023. Together they explore discovery. Whereas that earlier EP focused on discovery in a less favorable light (the realization that circumstances were not as they had seemed), this collection takes the concept of discovery a step further, in the directions of intentional exploration of self and of furthering others’ lives through joyful giving of oneself.
The movements here tell the story of a walk in the woods with a little girl, teaching her about nature, and sharing in the joy of her new experiences. Through this brief journey, her fearless leader experiences change and a realization that circumstances need not be as they had seemed.
The album is available on BandCamp. Full liner notes accompany your purchase.
