Corey is a well-loved songwriter known for his thoughtful lyrics and transcendent live-performances. He lives in Neptune Beach, Florida where he works as a Sound Healer and Death Doula. His family includes two cats (seagull and snail), a sucker-fish named Clam, a bearded dragon named Alberto (Uncle Al, Alan Watts, etc.), and a snail called Jesus Christ. He sees songs as a gift from heaven, and the sharing of music as the ultimate healing act.
