New Single: Moment in Time 🍂🕰
Good Morning! ✨
The first song on the new album (and the title track) is a song called "Moment in Time." This is a song written about the idea that we will never experience the same moment twice. It's always going to be different as we learn, grow and change, and as the world, seasons and time change around us.
This was also the very first song written for the album, and we like to think it's similar to reading the first chapter in a novel. We are very excited to announce that this song is now available as a single on all digital music and streaming platforms! Enjoy :)

Moment in Time: now available for pre-order! ✨
Hello, Storytellers. 🪶

Album update time! We officially finished recording (the last note was a backup vocal of Greta's on the 10th song on the album) at the beginning of July. Now Willow is currently in the middle of the mixing process, and we will be doing group mixes together next week. This is when we listen to the songs on every different type of speaker we can think of (car stereo, earbuds…

A Week at Sea … 🌺
We've just returned from a lovely week in the sun and sand onboard the inaugural String Break Cruise in the Bahamas. It was a week full of great music, sightseeing, and fun times for all. A true music festival at sea! One of the things that was so truly special about the cruise was getting to hang out with our friends in other bands and their families, and actually have the chance to watch …

November Update
Hello All!
November's greetings to you. I'm currently observing an industrious chipmunk nearby who is busy collecting seeds for the Winter. Nothing can stop this chipmunk. After attempting to jump between branches, the chipmunk has fallen out of a tree, got whacked by a blustery neighboring branch, has been attacked by crows, frozen in fright by the sounds of sirens going by and more. But this chipmunk is going to be well-stocked for the winter.
So, I think I'm inspired by this chipmunk.
Anyway, here's a quick update on what's been going on!

October Update
Hello All!
October's greetings to you. Here in the Pacific Northwest we've officially reached the time of year that I call "confusing" because "it's not cold but it's not warm either." The spiderwebs are spectacular, the trees are changing their gowns to a new color, and we're busy at work on our current musical and creative projects -- as usual. So, here's a quick update on what's been going on!
