(May 30, 2021)
Haven’t posted here in a while (again). So here’s a life update for those still around:
First, the elephant in the room for my longtime followers… Yes, I trimmed my beard! It’s actually much easier to manage, and I don’t have to worry about waking up with “bed beard.” 😅
In other news, I recently bought some recording gear and have been reconnecting with my passion for making music. It’s been a learning process, but it’s been really fun as well as challenging, given that I have other responsibilities in life. The above video is my most recent entry into a bi-weekly contest on YouTube/Reddit called Sunday With Ola (or SWOLA) Riff Challenge. It’s been a good way to push myself to be creative for the last few weeks and get feedback from others. Otherwise, I’m still experimenting with other sounds, and I hope to have actual full songs out in the near-ish future. Feel free to subscribe to my YouTube channel if you’d like…. Or don’t, whichever is cool.
Otherwise, not much else to report. Thankfully, I never caught COVID, nor anyone in my immediate family for that matter. I hope everyone here is still safe and well, those of you who stuck around Tumblr. Feel free to message me if you want my social media info! I doubt I’ll be super active here, but you never know, right?
Cheers!
