Concurrence is an 8-track album that maps the emotional arc of displacement, discovery, and arrival.

Built on haunting strings, resonant electronics, and environmental textures, it invites the listener into a state of suspended becoming — somewhere between the internal and external world as the multiple facets of our identity concurrently unfold.

At its heart, the album is shaped by my experience of picking up the pieces after my mother’s five-year battle with cancer— and saying goodbye to her an ocean apart, over a video call, while she was in Ireland and I was in Los Angeles. The grief, resilience, and slow work of healing found their way into the music as I searched for a sense of belonging and wholeness again. The turbulence in the opening tracks reflects that period of internal dissonance — the restless energy of being caught between places, between who I was and who I was becoming.

From there, the journey moves through phases of learning, discomfort, and a quiet resolve to keep going. By the later tracks, the music opens into a wider horizon — like stepping out onto open water — where the unknown becomes less threatening and more of a space for possibility and connection.

The album evolved through layered strings, synths, and textures rooted in classical tradition, expanded by improvisations with The Emersion Ensemble. In its final stages, I captured field recordings around water upon my return to Europe— rain in a Copenhagen greenhouse, water against a Venetian pier, rivers in Paris, and distant sounds in a Viennese corridor — creating a sonic journal of places that held fragments of my journey. These sounds, blended with the ensemble, push the music beyond genre into something immersive, tender, and quietly resilient.
