Artist picture
Sold a song to Disney at 12, masterminded a family band in my teens, wrote theater/cabaret in NYC in my youth, quit songwriting for a spell, now I’m back!
I love writing songs that capture strong feelings I’ve had about a time, person or place, and that wrap you in those feelings with a sumptuous arrangement and much to surprise the ear. I’m drawn to seductive rhythms and sophisticated chords, and themes of longing, carnality and joy. I want my listeners to be astonished!

Story behind the song
This was inspired by a presentiment I had that a longstanding tradition had ended. It reminded me of other times that things were suddenly over, even though (as it turned out after I wrote the song) this one wasnt.
Lyrics
It wasn't me It wasn't you It wasn't anything we did Or failed to do There came a time When we just knew WE BROKE THE SPELL Not a word was spoken Yet we could tell The spell was broken Never a clue Then it was through Nothing to do But bid farewell WE BROKE THE SPELL It wasn't you It wasn't me It wasn't anything That either could foresee A sudden end To reverie WE BROKE THE SPELL The enchantment ended Clear as a bell Nothing ill-intended We couldn't know Where it would go We had to grow I wish you well WE BROKE THE SPELL It was a day like any other When we'd never be the same When we lost the grand illusion When we gave away the game When at last our eyes Could see the cracks were spreading When at last our hearts Could feel where we were heading WE BROKE THE SPELL (interlude) You had to change I had to change Things had to change It's just as well We broke one hell Of a spell
