<h3 style="">Hello friends,</h3>Welcome to our Traveling Companions space, a portal into our creative work. This community enjoys the fruit of and helps us deliver the work we’ve been put on this earth to do.The support via this community means we can:<ul><li>sustainably&nbsp;create and release good things into the world as artists,</li><li>be of service to you&nbsp;and to the rest of our community, in newly relevant ways, and</li><li>help other artists too!</li></ul>This patron community began in the age of the Covid pandemic and is now hosted on Patreon. It was a latent idea for years, but the slowing and shutting down of the economy and especially the removal of live music gatherings from our public life forced us to pivot and reimagine our work and livelihood as artists.One of the things we carry is the joy of creating memorable and inspiring moments for our audience. We continue making those moments in whatever way we can. We invite you to partner with us here to deliver beautiful original productions of music and art and to encourage each other as we all travel on our journeys.<h3 style=""></h3><h3 style="">The Music &amp; Art</h3>We released our third studio album <a href="https://hypeddit.com/shinyshinyblack/reverberations" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Reverberations</a> in June 2023. We are now hosting our #tuesdaycoffeebreak, a weekly music livestream, and working on new songs. We will release new studio music regularly and are excited to see what comes next! We are booking local and regional venues and house concerts (near and far)!<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/AElm9Yg6neA?si=1eRdKaQwRJ9I0cRW" allowfullscreen="true" frameborder="0"></iframe>We are mid-process on our artistic and preservation work at the Sparklin House here in Goshen, Ind. and documenting that evolution on social media as well. This is an 1878 brick farmhouse that spent many decades as an apartment house. We bought the property in early 2021, moved into a few rooms later that year, and are now on the slow revitalization journey to transform it into not only our home, but our working studio and small event space. It's an incredibly inspiring space to steward and know that we are holding space for many great moments to come.&nbsp;<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/7w8HtBlz2Jc" allowfullscreen="true" frameborder="0"></iframe>Your support is invaluable. We love having new companions join us here. 😊 Thank you for believing in what we are doing and enjoying the work. Let's keep going!&nbsp;
