Renew and reinvent yourself in the blooming season.

Permission is an album in four seasons that invites you to live without restriction. To excavate the gems of your inner life. To radically express all sides of you, no matter what other people say or think.

Happy pop girl or melancholy indie girl?

News flash: I’m both.

So are you.

A few years ago, I got frustrated when trying to write songs for the major labels. The A&R’s always told me that I changed too much in between the songs and they weren’t able to label me as the happy pop girl or the sad, melancholy indie artist. This took a huge toll on my confidence, and my frustration grew as I tried to force myself into a mainstream, consistent voice as an artist.

This album was born when I finally stopped letting the pressure to create a mainstream voice to please industry execs dictate what music I write and instead, followed the feelings in my body.

This album is your permission slip to let go of labels, make choices that set you free, and love all your seasons, inner and outer. Ecstasy, grief, delight, rage and every shade of emotion in between. It’s a love letter to personal power and the life-giving magic of change. More than anything, it’s a rally cry for people to experience freedom of expression. The howl that – when put in the air – helps you connect with the people who love you exactly as you are.

Permission will be released in 4 parts – Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall.

The Spring album includes downloadable music made during the spring season. It explores themes like spring cleaning, dreaming, planting seeds, tending, and blooming.

Spring – whether you’re referring to the season outside or a time of reinvention in your life – is the time to begin again—to start new projects, nurture new ideas, and experiment with new ways of living. As one phase of life ends and a season of growth begins, the invitation is to clean out the old, take time to dream, plant and tend the seeds of those dreams, and dance into the next phase of life by waking up to the beauty around you.

Please note this is a digital album, meaning the music will be downloadable! A link to download it will be emailed to you on April 28th.
