What Is This? is an album for people trying to make sense of being human.
At some point in life, many of us begin asking questions that don’t come with easy answers.
What is this?
Why are we here?
What makes us who we are?
Why can humanity accomplish incredible things yet still struggle to understand one another?
Where does that voice inside our head come from?
Is there something greater than us?
What is the meaning of life?
And why does time suddenly seem so precious once we realize how quickly it’s passing?
What Is This? explores those questions through soul-blues storytelling, reflection, humor, faith, doubt, gratitude and wonder.
The album begins by simply asking, “What Is This?” and then spends the journey looking at life from different angles.
Ain’t No Animal Like a Man examines the strange contradictions of humanity.
Smart Enough to Split the Atom asks whether our knowledge has grown faster than our wisdom.
Tuesday Afternoon reminds us that some of life’s most meaningful moments look completely ordinary while we’re living them.
The Voice Behind My Eyes turns inward toward consciousness and the mystery of the self.
Everybody’s Pretending brings some humor to a truth most adults eventually discover—we’re all figuring this thing out as we go.
Borrowed Time reflects on the temporary nature of everything we call ours.
Questions More Than Answers wrestles honestly with faith, uncertainty and trusting even when we don’t completely understand.
Dust and Starlight zooms outward and considers the incredible reality of being alive in a universe far bigger than ourselves.
And Maybe It’s Here brings the journey home with a simple possibility:
Maybe the meaning we’ve spent so much time searching for isn’t somewhere far away.
Maybe it’s been hiding in the living all along.
There are no sermons here.
No claim to have all the answers.
Just a grown man wondering out loud through the blues.
Songs meant to make you feel.
Songs meant to make you think.
Songs meant to make you wonder.
Music With Meaning.
