Welcome to blog rest. A space where I share the thinking, the story, and the honest moments behind the music. rest. started as a personal project during one of the harder periods of my life, and it has slowly grown into something I genuinely believe in.
I started it because I needed it - and I hope that in some way, it helps you too. Each post here is just me, writing honestly about rest, music, wellbeing, and everything in between.
No expert advice, no perfect answers. Just real thoughts from someone who is still figuring it out, one volume at a time.
I hope it brings you rest.
Songs I rest to. We Are The Designers
The third in the Songs I rest to. series. We Are The Designers from the Planet Earth II soundtrack - Jacob Shea, Jasha Klebe and Hans Zimmer - the track I reach for when I need calm confidence and a reminder of what music can do. Modern classical and cinematic music for rest and wellbeing.
Songs I rest to. Bluebird
The second in the Songs I rest to. series. Bluebird by Alexis Ffrench - one of the most beautiful modern classical piano pieces written - came to me during one of the heaviest rehearsal periods of my career, and somehow it always felt like the calm in the middle of it all. Calming piano music for rest, sleep, and wellbeing.
Songs I rest to. Ascent
The first in a series of tracks that bring me rest. Ascent by Ludovico Einaudi found me on a ship in the Bay of Biscay at ten o'clock on a July night - and it has never quite left.
Piano and wellbeing - why the relationship runs so deep
There's a reason calming piano music does something different to you.
rest. volume 5 is here.
rest. volume 5 is written for the quieter moments inside summer - early morning walks, evenings in with someone you love, and all those small magical moments that are easy to miss. Three new calming felt piano tracks, out now.
