“in july, on a relative impulse, i left the city for 4 days with three guitars and some drums to write and record an album alone. this record more or less marks 10 years of ‘bodies of divine infinite and eternal spirit’. which seems to loosely explain my hurried return to an isolated, intimate process. i wrote all of the poetry automatically, so naturally songs had an idea of a melody within them by the time i arrived; patterns already emerging. mostly this is improvised work, first or second take. the thing about improvisation is that it’s harrowing. thankfully a great learning comes from a direct engagement with fear. which doesn’t guarantee good music but it does provide a potential site of prayer. improvisation encourages being comfortable with being wrong, questioned, fleeting, vulnerable, disgusting. it requires surrender. its powerless music. that is why it can be so powerful. perched open to time’s unpredictability, and then sing. there is a boundless trust in the circle of time that lives deep in the animal music of our minds. i think even just a glimpse of that is worth looking for.

admittedly, like most music, these are all love songs. the impulse to write these songs at all arrived through a love poem i wrote to brenna. it started with the line: ‘my love went away then came back as your guitar.’ and i took that guitar and an amp called the escort to a rat infested farmstay temple where ben’s grandparents lived for some 30 years. poems are always deliberations on a balance of some kind. what power music has to transform my own little sufferings or ponderings to celebrations, pinning them moth-like as love songs to your ears. and so of course these are also love songs to music itself. i owe everything to music. that’s my access point to understanding the earth (which is known by many names such as god). and so these are also love songs to an ever-presence-non-preence of god; the spiralled lifedeath of time.”
