My official lyric video for “More Than Ever” from the album Nectalux is now live.

This song is my love letter to humanity.

It’s about what connects us underneath everything that divides us — the simple truth that we’re all here, living this moment together, and what we choose to do with it.

I chose to release this lyric video in alignment with Earth Day as an offering — a moment of reflection, a reminder to slow down, be gentle with each other, and care for this beautiful planet we get to share.

“More Than Ever” holds both heaviness and hope — acknowledging what hurts, what feels fractured, and what feels overwhelming, while still reaching toward something more unified, more compassionate, and more human. We’re being called to pay attention, and to choose how we show up for each other and the world we share.

If this song resonates with you, I hope you’ll carry it with you, and share it with someone you love.

Thank you for listening.

MORE THAN EVER

I’m deeply grateful to be featured in the ninth issue of The Catskiller, centered around the theme “Seeing Light in the Darkness.”

This edition includes selected pages from my Nectalux album booklet in print, along with a feature of my single, “Until Daylight,” on The Catskiller’s social media. It’s an honor to be included among so many artists and creators connected to the Catskill region.

Nectalux has always meant more to me than just a body of music. I’ve defined it as: A living embodiment of overcoming a period of darkness or death, stepping fully into the light, and allowing life’s blessings to flow consistently and freely over oneself.

Because of that, being included in an issue with a theme so closely aligned to that meaning feels incredibly significant—almost like seeing the work reflected back to me through another lens.

There’s something powerful about watching parts of Nectalux exist outside of myself. Seeing the definition of the project paired with the honey-dripping imagery album art pages in print is something I’ll always hold close.
