Follow the sun

 "I began writing this song on the spring equinox, so it felt natural to follow the sun.
While writing it, I kept thinking about the whole cycle: winter’s quiet, spring’s return, summer’s abundance, autumn’s slowing down. 

"The same is true of day and night - we need both. 

"This song is really about rhythm: how spring only means what it means because winter came first, and how light matters because darkness does too. 

"Plants rest, animals slow down, people turn inward, and then life rises again. 
Follow the Sun is a song about the sun as guidance, but also about learning to trust the rhythm of life.

"I worked with a live recording of a jazz band playing in Paris, using a sample of its melody as the initial spark. From there, I wrote a song and arrangement that grew around that melodic idea."
