Good question. When a kid smiles at me, I smile back ... but I also say something to the parent like, "it's good to have a friendly kid, but too bad we have to be wary these days". The parent is instantly put at ease.
Our brand new animated film, "The Moon Followed Me to Falmouth", which premiered in Falmouth, England, is now being submitted to film festivals around the globe. Wish my team, and me, luck as we launch our sophomore film project. Enjoy! via

Dear Eugene. I feel like I know you. You are my favorite guest on cable news - you are kind, insightful, and empathetic - and a phenomenal writer to boot. She sounds like one heluva woman. I am deeply sorry for your loss.
Movie Lovers - it's here! Fresh off the International Film Festival Circuit - the Highland Home Music Short Film, shot primarily on the glorious Oregon Coast - the closest thing we could find to Scotland! Grab some popcorn and enjoy! 💙🎬🍿🏴
UBER COOL NEWS! The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra (RPO) just rehearsed one of my songs, in preparation for an August recording session in London! The recording will be used in a music short film to be released in 2024. What a thrill to be working with the world-famous RPO!

I send healing thoughts to King Charles. I like the man, especially his advocacy for the Environment. He was dedicated to his mum, The Queen, and stood in for her in her later years. Whether you like the Monarchy, or not, Charles deserves our compassion and good-will.
Beautiful, vibrant autumn picture, brought to you from "sylviamusik". Hoping this brings colour and vibrancy to your day!!! Boungiornio Tutti!!! 🍂🍁🌺🌸🌤️

As many of you already know, our crew just finished filming in Gougane Barra, County Cork, Ireland, after recording "Dawn at Gougane Barra" in Dublin. Here's what this spectacular valley and lough (lake) looked like when we were there.

This scene absolutely breaks my heart! Lahaina is my favorite town in all of the Hawaiian Isles! It was/is a lovely town, full of artists, great waterside eateries, and welcoming (Aloha) locals. My heart goes out to the people of Lahaina and the Island of Maui. 😭🔥🌴
This is what it looked like earlier on Maui. If you've been to my hometown of Lahaina...I fear it is no longer. I dread what it will look like in the morning. An apocalyptic scene is unfolding due to the fires raging across my island. Please pray for us.

Of course ... A Horse is a Horse of course, of course and no one can talk to a horse of course unless of course the talking horse is the famous Mr. Ed! Now how did I remember that after all these years - I did not Google it ... I remembered it!
I love "M.M. beats: music! And, this new song, "Time" is stellar. The music is lush, the melody sublime, the arrangement brilliant, and the video is gorgeous. Looking for some new, beautiful music ... well ... here you go. Enjoy!!! 💙🎶🎬
Sonny and Cher were huge when I was growing up ... and I remain an avid Cher fan. And even though Sonny and Cher divorced ... as evidenced in this duet, Cher never stopped loving Sonny. Schmaltzy song ... yes ... Heartwarming ... an even bigger YES!
You already know that the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra just recorded one of my songs at the iconic Air Studios in London. Here is a photo of the studio's control room ... you can see the orchestra through the window. The Starship Enterprise has nothing on this!
