Music has always been about connection—between the musicians, the audience, and the moment itself. Live at the Bridge is an expression of that connection, a raw and intimate snapshot of sound unfolding in real time. No overdubs, no second takes—just the energy of the room, the interplay of ideas, and the trust we placed in each other to let the music speak.

This project was recorded in Brooklyn, in a space that naturally lent itself to deep listening. The acoustics, the atmosphere, the collective focus—it all contributed to the way we played. The goal was never to chase perfection, but rather to capture something honest. A moment that couldn’t be replicated. A moment that lives only in this recording.

The selections on this album are timeless, songs that have been reinterpreted countless times yet still hold space for new meaning. My approach was simple: strip everything down to its essence—melody, emotion, conversation. What you hear is the result of that approach. The sound of four musicians locked in, exploring familiar songs with fresh ears, allowing space for each note to breathe.

ordering this album, supporting it, listening to it—these are all extensions of the same act of connection that happened in the room that day. This project wouldn’t exist without those who continue to show up, who believe in the magic of live music, and who understand that the most powerful moments are the ones that can never be repeated.

Thank you for listening. Thank you for being part of this moment.
