Most of you know that I’ve been working with Josh for a couple of years now, since just before the release of “To The Wind” way back in the spring of 2020.

21ish artists from 2021 you need to know! A year in review!
Well here we are, end of another year. 2021, the year started with a glimmer of hope and as the year went on the light at the end of this long COVID tunnel grew brighter and brighter…but it turns out the light was just an oncoming train called Omicron that would set us back even further than ever before.
