Aspen Rocks auditions are more than just a performance—they’re courage in real time. Every artist who stepped up brought something real, and we were truly blown away. We couldn’t be more proud of every single one of you.

Choosing finalists for Aspen Rocks was no easy task.

If you believe in creating spaces like this for young artists, we invite you to support our mission.

Donate. Support. Inspire.

My EP “Dream Again” is OUT NOW!

This project ties together seasons of my life, parts of my story, and stories that aren’t mine, but navigate the human experience of faith, doubt, loss, and finding hope again.

I hope it meets you in your story, and you can see yourself through the eyes of the Storyteller with a little more grace.

If there’s one thing you take away from “Dream Again” outside of the encouragement of the title itself, let it be this:

Jesus Christ - the greatest storyteller of all time cares about you and He cares about your dreams too. Do not give up on your dreams and do not give up on Him.

Thank you to everyone who made this project possible:
Cowriters: Joe Bryson, Jordan Fletcher, Mark Irwin
Producers: Evan Sieling, Mark Caldwell
Sound Engineers: Wes Lanich

While I didn’t walk away with a physical prize last night, my heart is so full from sharing a night of music with such an amazingly talented group of musicians!
Congratulations to Cole, Delaney & Jackson on their winning performances!! 👏🏼
Many thanks to Inspire Aspen Foundation, Mad Dog Studio, Wheeler Opera House, the panel of judges, and all that helped put on this awesome event that gives a platform to musicians here in the valley. Everyone I met was so warm and encouraging. It’s truly inspiring to feel that level of support as an artist!
Plus, it was such a thrill to play my heart out on the main stage at the Wheeler Opera House!! 🙌🏼
I still plan on recording my latest song, Devil Hates a Coward, in the near future- as I feel really strongly about getting it out there for the world to hear.
Stay tuned for updates on the progress! 🎶✌🏼

🌟ASPEN ROCKS🌟

One week from today (9/11/25 @ 7pm), I’ll be taking the stage at Aspen’s iconic Wheeler Opera House with five fellow singer songwriters - all of us hoping to win the opportunity to record our original music at the legendary Mad Dog Ranch & Studio!
Aspen Rocks is being presented by Inspire Aspen Foundation, a foundation that at it’s heart is about “empowering through music.” Proceeds from the concert will directly benefit their efforts - providing unique opportunities for musicians in the Aspen/Snowmass and Roaring Fork Valley to pursue their talents and musical dreams.
If you’re in the area, please join us for this exciting night of original music!
We greatly appreciate your support! 🙌🏼
