Dear friends,
I hope you are all having a fabulous start to July!
It continues to be an uncertain time for many, including those of us in the music industry. I’m working hard to find ways to stay creative, explore my interests, and have fun.
I’m releasing my single Rag in Fourths TODAY! It is available on my Bandcamp store and 100% of the proceeds will be going to the Sphinx Organization.
The sheet music for Rag in Fourths is also available for purchase.
Rag in Fourths is part of my Ragtime Project – an exploration of the artists, culture, and trends of American music in the 1890s-1910s. The project is multi-dimensional including an EP, an ebook, blog posts, and sheet music.
More great news: My debut EP The New Groove is available for streaming on most major platforms! Please give it a listen and share it with your friends.
The EP is still available for purchase on Bandcamp.
While there is a lot of uncertainty in the world, I have found a silver lining during this time. It has been a luxury to be able to put so much time into my art, whether that has been through practicing, composing, recording, reading, listening, or blogging.
Thank you for joining me on this journey! I am so fortunate to have such a supportive community around my music and me.
Take care,
Sam
