A BLESSING

CHOIR BOY was such an amazing blessing in my life. Artistically, personally, and spiritually. The opportunity to perform Tarell's brilliant work was incredible. Making literal magical moments on stage with those four men...such an indiscribable feeling. This opportunity completely opened my eyes to an emotional depth that I never knew I had the capacity to employ. I'll say it again...A BLESSING! #JAGChoirBoy
