Almost exactly 2 years ago, I got together with my friends Katie Blomarz, Emmanuel Echem, and Chris Leidhecker to record my 2020 NPR Tiny Desk Contest submission. It was the last time I played music with other people before the pandemic isolation began. I'm thrilled that I was able to get together with the same musicians to play a new song of mine called "Enchant Me" for this year's contest entry.
Even more special, I got to record this year's entry with Baby Flowers dancing along inside!
Katie Blomarz - bass
Emmanuel Echem - trumpet
Chris Leidhecker - percussion
Played on my solid spruce top Lanikai baritone ukulele!
Side note: I know the audio balance isn't the best, but I wanted to capture as "live" and raw a sound as possible. Hopefully you can enjoy as a composition--think of the voice as an instrument, enjoy the interaction between various instruments, and hopefully someday I'll have a much clearer recording :)
