Some have asked me why I chose to name the album after that song….well largely because the songs represent various states of mind, a journey of reflection and different emotions which I hope you will connect with….another reason which is rather unrelated is because of an experience I had 4 years ago when I was studying in Boston. After performing State of my mind and winning an open mic on campus, a pleasant old lady came up to me smiling 2 days later at the canteen; I can’t remember her exact words but she clearly said, “….you have to keep doing what you’re doing!”….guess it was one of those ‘moments’ and I just knew…

Hey all! FINALLY I’ve gotten a dedicated website and myspace page. Just got back from Russia (amazing country!) and working hard on putting the remaining things together for the official album launch (procrastination is evil! =))…it’s been quite a ride, years in the making, but when things slowly fall into place and your dream unfolds before you…the feeling’s amazing!

To all those who have been a part of this journey, thank you so much for your encouragement and support all these years, even if it was just one word that made my day!….I hope I won’t disappoint you J For all those who have yet to know me and my music, a big welcome! …. see you guys soon…in the meantime, do have a listen to the audio samples! Love, Jon
