I have been taking advantage of the additional time I’ve had at home during the coronavirus pandemic to redesign and rewrite a bunch of my websites using newer technologies. Version 3.0 of my blog was released this morning.

I am happy to announce that my official music website has received a brand new design. The website is based off of Next.js and is optimized for performance both on desktop and mobile.
