Hi wonderful folks,

It’s been a while since I’ve been posting regularly on Guitarhabits. The past couple of years have been pretty crazy. I’m usually hesitant to share too much of my personal life online, especially with how things can spread on the internet. But let’s just say that people close to me passed away and I was dealing with some health issues myself.

I’m not sharing this to make anyone feel sorry for me, we all have our challenges in life. But because of your loyal support over the years, I felt it was only fair to let you know how I’m doing. I also know how it feels to follow people online and slowly feel like they become a small part of your life.

I’m doing okay now, though I’m still a work in progress. But I guess that’s what life is all about, right? Haha. The past few years have taught me some tough but valuable lessons, and they’ve also opened the door to new and exciting things in my life that are slowly beginning to take shape.

Alright, let’s move on to the fun part.

Miss the Train

I recently released a new song on Spotify and AppleMusic. It’s a song I wrote and recorded about ten years ago but never actually released. A few months ago I found myself listening to it again after a long time, and somehow it just felt like the right moment to finally share it with the world.

The song is called “Miss the Train.” It’s about the constant rush in life, how many people feel the pressure to keep running and chasing something bigger and bigger. In the song, the main character decides to miss that train and stay behind, choosing a simpler and more meaningful way of living.

I would love it if you’d give it a listen and if you happen to like the song feel free to add it to one of your Spotify or Apple playlists.
