But now that our 8th week of lockdown is slowly inching its way into the 9th week (I think it’s the 9th anyway), the urge to write about music is back. (And if you’re curious, … Continue reading Track by Track: 1996 by Eighteen Visions
Opening with a slick bass line and dreamy 80’s ethereal keys, the first single, “Do Not Disturb” from Ryan Adam’s upcoming 18th studio album, Big Colors (out on 11-June) is a seductress and enchantress musically and lyrically.

A little album release info:Heart released on 16-April& releasing exclusively to … Continue reading Track by Track: Heart by Eric Church

I am not the greatest runner. I am not even a great fan of running, but I do it because I like the zen benefits of it and if I run, I can avoid condition training (assault bike, ski-erg, row-erg, etc). I can run with music or without it but when I do use music, I don’t use it as a pace setter or anything … Continue reading Running Playlist: 🏃🏻♀️January 2020
