Wayfinder
After over 3 years of development, the long awaited album is upon us! A singer-songwriter blend of Indie-Rock, Folk-Pop, and New age renditions of old sounds combine into the personal, Coming of age story. this album features 14 songs ranging from simple piano tunes to rhythms beyond the edge of space.
Wayfinder is it's own story about the collection of findings within personal experiences and self-reflection. Dating back from getting lost trying to figure out who I was, to visiting old trauma alone in a faraway place I used to live, to finding myself with the things that mattered most to me. So as well as being it's own creation in the making, it also serves as a conclusion of this chapter in my life.
This huge project has been made in collaboration with so many people, and I want to recognize those people. You can find their names at the bottom! Merch will be availble in the store section! More info coming soon!

The Bearer of Bad News | August 22nd, 2025
Part One of "Risking My Life, For The Sake of My Life" spoke of dealing with pain and the overcoming of collapsing. Pain is always inevitable, but it is the level of pain inside that determines the difference between life, death, and resurrection. Overcoming depths of pain inside is what led to clarity and closure.
Part Two, "The Bearer of Bad News" speaks of struggle stemming from the outside world and from other people's pain. A slow boiling mix of fear, regret, and despair grows hotter as the world gets darker. Seeing others fall to grim lives, others taken and choosing the path to leave others behind, the world slowly collapsing over war and corruption. Part Two is not meant to speak for the people who are living through such things. This is simply giving a voice to a fate that is quickly taking over so many people. A pleading message begging for change, for peace, and for comfort.
The Traveler is an artist of and for the people. And with that being said, one of my missions as The Traveler is to offer help to anyone in anyway I can. Recent events all around the world have many of us heartbroken and wondering what we can possible do. What those in need, need from us are resources, kind words, donations. Anything to keep them fighting one more day.
Any kind of money that this EP makes will go directly to charities and possibly a charity fund that will aid people in Gaza, Iran, Ukraine, Sudan, Syria, and in funds helping the struggling here at home! Whether this EP recieves a few cents, or miraculous loads of dollars, none of will be kept by me or anyone I know. It will go straight to those who are in desperate need of resources to survive.
