In Like a Lion, Out Like a Lamb


As the fat rain drops plop loudly out my window, I'm sitting here thinking about Spring. For me, as for many, spring is an intoxicating mix of sorrow and hope, despair and rebirth. The earth begins awakening from slumber, and with that comes change: large and minute. The birds return one, two, three at a time. The storm clouds rumble and roll in with fervor, and all this change can awaken a little craziness in us all. My nephew, born with cerebral palsy and many saddening birth defects, has just had his first birthday, a HUGE milestone for such a tiny baby with so many struggles just to survive. So with this, I am posting this FREE mixtape as a sort of moody celebration of death and rebirth. Both are necessary and both are beautiful. Enjoy this mixtape and its two faces, and look around you for the evidence of both in the world.
