Friends, family, and music lovers — I’m beyond thrilled to finally share something I’ve been working toward for years: I’m recording a brand new full-length studio album, Fairy of the Prairie!
This record will be my most heartfelt, rootsy, and ambitious project yet. It’s a collection of songs born from my Kansas roots, filled with stories I’ve been carrying and sharing on stages across the Midwest and beyond. For the past decade, I’ve been blessed to tour with both my solo project and my band MoonShroom — playing thousands of shows, connecting with communities, and learning what it really means to live a life in music. Now, it’s time to take the next step.
Why Fairy of the Prairie is so special
This album will capture songs I’ve been performing live for years, finally brought to life in the studio with some of the best musicians I know. We’ll be recording live at Element Recording & Mastering in Kansas City with producer Joel Nanos (one of the best in the business, whose studio attracts artists from Nashville, NYC, and LA).
The lineup of talent on this project is unreal:
Kyle Tuttle – Banjo
Alex Hawf – Mandolin
Johnny Mullenax – Electric Guitar
Andrew Morris – Acoustic Guitar
Marco Pascolini – Pedal Steel
Zach Bozeman - Bass
Fritz Hutchison - Drums
I’ve also teamed up with a powerhouse radio promoter and publicist to ensure these songs reach as many ears as possible, just like MoonShroom’s Take a Trip, which climbed the Jamband Radio Chart (#10) and the Alt-Country Chart (#34).
But this album isn’t just about numbers. It’s about creating something truly unique — a whimsical, roots-infused journey that weaves Kansas stories into music that resonates with anyone, anywhere.
Why I need YOU
Here’s the truth: making an album at this level requires a huge team and a serious investment. From musicians, engineers, and producers to designers, publicists, and promoters — this is a full-scale effort.
That’s why I have launched a Kickstarter fundraiser with a goal of $20,000 in 30 days.
Kickstarter is all-or-nothing: if we don’t hit the goal, we don’t get a dime. That means every pledge counts, no matter the size. And I’ve created some amazing reward packages for backers, filled with exclusive music, merch, and experiences you won’t find anywhere else.
Your support doesn’t just fund a record — it helps me create something genuine and sustainable. Something that spreads light, connects souls, and carries on the traditions of roots music for generations.
How you can help
1. Back the project on Kickstarter — choose the highest package that feels right to you and claim your exclusive goodies.
2. Spread the word — share the Kickstarter link with your friends, family, and fellow music lovers. Word of mouth is powerful!
3. Follow the journey — I’ll be posting sneak peeks from the studio and behind-the-scenes moments along the way.
💛 From the bottom of my heart: thank you for being on this journey with me. Your belief in my music means the world, and I cannot wait to put Fairy of the Prairie in your hands. Together, we can make this dream come true.
