Left Atlanta with an open heart, a full tank, and a lust for life.
Carved from a single acoustic guitar.
Delivered with visionary, high-lonesome spirit.
A ten-song album beginning on the open road with “Surprise & Ecstasy,” celebrating the simplicity of travel, freedom, and peak moments of awakening, concluding with the stark, quiet weight of "My One & Only Friend," an intimate post-mortem on breaking away from an enchanting love, wading through the ache of isolation, and pulling yourself back together again.

Reality is what has been concealed from us for so long.
– Jim Morrison
In 2017, I discovered Gary Lachman's The Secret Teachers of The Western World. It would have a profound effect upon the course of my life. While reading, I kept thinking about poet and Doors vocalist Jim Morrison. As I read about these secret teachers, a new vision of Jim Morrison's remarkable life began to form in my mind, one I felt was closer to the truth about his very, very old soul. It was not long afterward that I decided to write my first book about this. Inner Traditions published Jim Morrison, Secret Teacher of The Occult: A Journey to The Other Side on September 10, 2024.
