Forest writes songs inspired by love for the land where he lives, faith in the power of people, and radical resistance to exploitative industrial systems. He seeks to support local resilience movements that bring people together and spiritually redefine what we are as part of a larger whole. After years playing music in Los Angeles, where he was named an “artist not to miss” by The LA Times, Forest traded a studio full of gadgets for an acoustic guitar and an elk skin drum so he could play music outdoors in the mountains near Eugene. He has a degree in orchestral composition from the University of Oregon and has recorded several albums of original music, available on all streaming platforms.

An intimate but powerful folk rock experience, listeners are immersed in an original musical style. Lyrical stories blend themes of love, longing and friendship with messages of spiritual empowerment and the vision and strength to create a better world.
