about

“Mr. Inevitable is a collection of compositions expressing the peaks and valleys of life through music.

Each song represents an emotional theme depicting various tropes of the universal human experience.

They are written and performed through the lens of my own personal perspectives and the collective interpretations of the musicians on the album.

Each song is inspired by a collage of the wide array of musical influences ─ music from Latin America, Klezmer, rock ‘n’ roll, and more ─ and cultural roots that have made my musical voice what it is today, all through the lens of the jazz idiom.

Please join me on this journey.”

The seven tracks and their respective emotional themes on this album are:

1. No Holds Barred: inner strength and fortitude

2. The Yearning: striving and pursuing for what you want most

3. Better Days: hope, optimism, peace, silver linings

4. Mr. Inevitable: accepting and embracing the inevitabilities of life

5. Equilibrium: balancing between states of unease and clarity

6. Reflections: contemplative

7. Arrival: contentment, gratitude, accomplishment, bliss
