An Ascension

For those of you who haven't heard my song An Ascension, you can listen to it here.

The recording isn't great, but I just like to get my music out there for anyone who wants to listen.

I wrote An Ascension about a year ago, I was travelling alone and had recentely been fairly traumatized by events I'd rather not discuss publically. But these events changed my life, it woke something deep inside of me and pushed me in a new direction. I namned the song An Ascension because it was the main theme of that period in my life, and the song per se is inspired by that theme. It's not actually about a specific person, but there are a couple of different people who were on my mind when I wrote it.

Music has always been something very important to me, a way for me to express things I otherwise can't, and I really do feel like it's an extension of my soul. It's hard to explain, but it's like music is the essence of life sometimes.. And in times when I can't sing due to different circumstances, I feel like I'm not functioning, or like I'm fading. It's interesting, and it's so deeply rooted in my being. No matter the feeling, music always clears things up somehow. It's so profound, and awesome!
