Water Baby

Welcome, everyone!

It’s been almost two months since my second album, The Time We Are Given, was released. With a bit of space from that journey, I’m feeling the pull to dive back into composing for the next project. Right now, I’m calling it Water Baby, inspired by the children’s story The Water Babies by Charles Kingsley, written in 1862-1863. This title holds a certain mystery that feels fitting for the path ahead.

I have a loose sense of the direction I want this album to take, though the creative process can be delightfully unpredictable. New inspirations can emerge from unexpected places, reshaping the journey in ways I might not anticipate.

What’s exciting about this project is that, for the first time, I want to bring you along in shaping it. This Behind-the-Scenes page is a space for us to explore together. You’ll be able to hear early composition mockups, get a sneak peek at the first artwork ideas, and share your thoughts on the elements taking shape. Your input could play a real part in the final work!

Thank you for being here, and for joining me on this creative journey. Let’s dive into Water Baby together!
