Somewhere in Andalucía, the night doesn’t really fall. It wakes up.
This piece actually started as a challenge. Glenn pushed me to try writing from the idea of an old Spanish tale. Not something literal, just a feeling. A story that feels like it’s been told before, even if you can’t quite place it.
This is where it led me.
I kept thinking about a guitarist. Not just someone playing, but someone whose music pulls people in. Quietly. Almost without them realizing it. Like you’re just walking through a street at night, and suddenly you’re part of something.
The guitar sits at the center of it. Not loud, not demanding. Just there. And somehow, that’s enough.
This song is about that kind of pull. The way a sound can take hold before you even notice. One note turns into a rhythm, and before long you’re in it. Not really choosing it, but not wanting to leave either.
The visuals follow that same feeling. A version of an Andalusian village at night that feels familiar but slightly off. Movement is a little staggered, almost like stop motion. People drift more than they walk. Shadows hang around longer than they should.
It’s not dark, but it isn’t light either. Just somewhere in between.
Inspired by old tales from Andalucía of a guitarist whose playing could hold a room still, or pull people somewhere they didn’t mean to go.
This is a visual for my original song “Andalucía & That Guitar .”
It’s out now on all streaming platforms ... would love for you to stream or add to your playlists!

Village lights dim,
Workers end their day,
The whisper in surround,
Of ocean waves at play,
Ahead I see a crowd,
Dancing sillouettes sway,
If heaven had a sound,
It would be Andalucía and that guitar
Ooooh Andalucía
And the way he played
If heaven had a sound,
It would be Andalucía and that guitar
Vibration of the string
Pulsing with my heart
Dissonant melodies,
Connecting like the stars,
As I turn to walk away,
But pulled by the rasgueado
If heaven had a sound,
It would be Andalucía and that guitar
Ooooh Andalucía
And the way he played
If heaven had a sound,
It would be Andalucía and that guitar
