At the start of 2024 I gave myself a challenge to record a new playlist of original music each month, and share it with friends and family. If you’d like to join me on this adventure, just sign up here and I’ll send you the latest recording today! It’s free and you can unsubscribe anytime. I send out a new playlist each month, and occasional music related news. Thanks for listening! – Miles
