about

Glass Stories is a collection of two short stories, two songs, and photographs inspired by the fragility, adaptability, and resiliency of glass. The project makes connections across boundaries of history, fiction, and music, with the mythical and physical presence of glass as an inspiration. It’s also a project that marks a new chapter in my career—this is my first collection of short stories, and shows the deep connections I’m hoping to build between music and fiction in the coming years.

The COVID pandemic changed the world in ways we are only beginning to understand—and it has changed me too. It’s been a time of terrible suffering and loss for millions of people all across the world. Even though my family and I have so far escaped the worst effects of the pandemic, I've struggled with deep feelings isolation, frustration, and worry about the future. This project is an attempt to turn those emotions into something that might help me find peace, and I hope it can be for others as well.

The songs explore bad luck, self-doubt, and the struggle to fight against powerful, oppressive forces while still retaining one’s dignity.
