New Star Is Born

I am blessed through my travels to reflect many musicians along the way. Of the hundreds of shows I have attended over the years, it is rare that I become truly captivated and lost in the music. Do not get me wrong, I love music deeply and always appreciate it, yet sometimes you find something really magic. A spark, a passion, and a talent you do not see so often. Upon meeting Ashley Peacock, and reflecting him as he him performed that night, was exactly this.

I am so grateful to have captured these moments of you, and am beyond words really to say how sorry I am that you are gone. You were doing wonderful things and now there is a hole where you once were, in so many peoples hearts, and all that you are for the Flint community.

As one of my dearest friends said, a wise women indeed, “A light has gone out on planet earth, but somewhere in our Universe a new Star is being born.” – Rhonda Groves Young 

Your passing is truly a loss to this place, but I am sure as such a passionate being, you are shinning bright upon us still!

Thank you for being here, and farewell dear.

Love and light upon your soul.

*update* I remembered this morning about how when I first saw Building Birds play, I wanted to swoop then up and take them back to Europe with me on tour. At that point I had all the connections for such and I wished to share them with the world. Makes me wonder why we wait, and reminds me to step forward when I am inspired. Hoping we all will find our courage to reach out to one another and create beautiful things!
