Ever since I was a kid, I've always experienced feelings in a powerful way. Catching Feelings is a musical expression of different emotions I've experienced in life, like the liberation of riding a skateboard, the emptiness of driving through my rural hometown at night, the ups and downs of intimate relationships, and the joys of teaching and learning. Cello has always been my number one tool for expression, but playing in a classical style hasn't always been the best canvas. This album has elements of r&b, soul, and hip-hop, music that I grew up with, that serve as the canvas for sharing my experiences. Thank you to Chris Kramer and Ryan Nolan for adding the mixing/mastering details to really allow this project to come to life.
