Album Release Concert Poster - September 27, 2025

This album has taken me nearly two years to complete, and I’m so excited to play the music LIVE in person for you!

Dawn’s Light is a musical journey through the fantastical land of Solistia: a vibrant and diverse continent with lush forests, sunny prairies, scorching deserts, and frigid landscapes.

The music is entirely my harp arrangements from the Octopath Traveler II Soundtrack by Yasunori Nishiki.

If you love video game music, you’ll love it!

If you don’t know anything about video games, you’ll also love it!

All you need to know is that you’re going to hear some beautiful harp music inspired by the landscapes of a fictional world, with beautiful melodies and captivating harmonies and all delivered with the musical stylings of yours truly.

Get your tickets today, and I’ll see you at the end of the month!

And if you want to get your hands on a copy of the album when it releases on September 18, you can preorder it here.

If I have any CDs left I’ll bring them to the concert - but I’m only making 100 so if you want to guarantee you get yours sooner is better than later!
