Hooked on Resophonics is a lo-fi love letter.

It is written on the parchment of this beautifully strange Slovakian creation, and it is to not only the instrument itself, but to the gifted players that continue to pioneer the techniques, styles, and sounds that not only inspire me - but simply make me giddy.

It is also a way to acknowledge and express my gratitude for music - for the pathways it has created in my life, the musicians I’ve met on the this journey, and the songs that have stirred my soul.

A blend of interpretations and compositions, and the stories that make up excerpts from what will hopefully one day read as a finely crafted novel.

    [S1 E1] Wee Waltz (I Courted a Wee Girl / Josefin's Waltz)

    In the days of traversing this great land in a conversion van filled with acoustic instruments and the insecurities of the four musicians that played them, we found solace in the repetition of a few great albums.

  • [S1 E2} Redwing

    [S1 E2} Redwing

    I became reacquainted with this tune over the past year after venturing back to Andy Hall’s first solo album by the same name. Every few seasons, I gravitate back to the gorgeous track ‘Letter From Prison’, which I’m proud to say made my Spotify wrapped, along with the numerous songs by the GOAT, Enya - who, of course secures the top spot each year.

  • [S1 E3] Off the Wall

    [S1 E3] Off the Wall

    A multi-part / over-composed ditty chronicling the disruption of depressive symptoms following the brief relief of an endorphin + dopamine dump.

  • [S1 E4] Pickaway (aka Pickanatti)

    [S1 E4] Pickaway (aka Pickanatti)

    when I told him I played the Dobro, his eyes lit up and the warmest smile washed across his face. Even then, he made me feel like a peer instead of a fan.
