My name is Zan. I have been learning and making music for over 20 years. I am a navigator of diverse soundscapes and a connoisseur of vibrational aesthetics. My world travels cultivated a breadth of musical interests including finger-style guitar, sound healing, western classical, Andean folk music, didgeridoo, and Indian raga, and many shades between.
Music can lift our spirits, inspire us, make us smile, connect us to each other, and bring us more fully into the moment. I aim to put these positive, illuminating aspects of music at the forefront of my craft.
I’m currently working on a third solo album called that should be released in 2024, alongside a first record from a new project Medicine Rising. My second solo album “Essence” (2018) and explores my passion for diverse styles, traditions, instrumentals, and rhythmic grooves. My debut solo album “The Rain Has Come” (2016) is on Bandcamp, a world-instrumentation in a singer-songwriter style. I’ve also had a really good time making music with a project called Raganova, which released a pair of highly-dancable world-fusion albums: Un Solo Pueblo (2017) & Ascención (2019).
