Over the past 20 years, music has taken me places that I never dreamed I'd go, and introduced me to so much rare beauty that would otherwise be left unknown. As a songwriter, I've often found myself circling back to that rarity, trying to catch those fleeting moments, which have made the struggles that come along seem somehow all worthwhile.
Folks find music for all kinds of reasons, but I've always felt like when you arrive here, there is a unspoken language shared through the appreciation of song. When I first got close to it, I felt like I had discovered something I had been searching for, and there wasn't a void anymore.
Recently, though, I hit a wall. I felt like I was jockeying for position in a race I was never supposed to enter in the first place. I followed advice from others to trace traditional avenues in a collapsing industry, all of which seemed to lead far from a destination I desired, and in that experience, the rarity was lost. It led me to ask myself what I was after and, more directly, why.
When I started to find answers to those questions, I felt myself getting closer again. I kept traveling, but it started to feel different. Reaching out to folks I've met over the years for what I was calling my 'family shows' exemplified a big part of why: getting people together to share in a moment simply with song in the center.
I wrote "Twice as High" about the experience of narrowing your sights to the simplicity that we so rarely choose to acknowledge, even though it's right there. I headed into the high desert with a filmmaker friend of mine to put together a song I hadn't even made plans to record yet. When I got home, I wrote "You & I" about a similar kind of beauty.
When I slowed down, I went into the studio to record some of the songs I'd been writing with the band, called The High Lifers because we thought it had a ring to it that would make people smile. Listening back to what we made together felt like the rarity I'd been chasing, partly because music holds a certain kind of magic and partly because we let it. -XORH
