Thank you for creating this wonderful space for songs.
You really do have something special here, and you have a knack for surrounding yourselves with people who have the same joy and passion. The combination makes for nothing short of a joyful and fulfilling experience.
I’m grateful to be part of what you’re doing here.
With Love,

“Nick has an impressive resumé, not only as a producer but also as a musician. More importantly though, he has a tether to the foundation of art and creation - to the spark - and he protects the integrity of the music throughout, and even despite of, the process.We love Nick.”

“This weekend was an absolute dream! I am so grateful and my heart is soooo full. Watching these songs that I wrote in my bedroom come to life was so magical. Thank you Nick for being the best producer. You rock, and these songs wouldn't be what they are without you!”

“There is so much to be said about the experience but to sum it up for the sake of a caption - it was a dream come true. Thank you to Nick for your careful attention to detail and patience when pouring your heart into bringing each song to life. Also thank you to the band for lending your mind blowing talents to my little songs.”

“This song is about the feeling of finding love again after being hurt. I really feel as if we captured a "feeling" and put it into sound, which I suppose is the goal but often hard to achieve at times. When |listen back, I can feel what it might be like to be in love again. The chords within it that represent that feeling of love, sorrow, and hope. Thank you Nick for helping bring my vision to life and spending hours in the recording studio on it. Bringing this tune to life made me fall in love with writing and singing again.”

What a magical place you have both created here!
The perfect setting to shut out the world and turn on the creative juices. Working with Nick always makes me feel years younger and the depth of your talent amazes me.

“This week has been a dream come true! Burn out is a problem we all face and slowing down can be hard but I was given a chance to rest this week while recording this project and remembered just how important it is to slow down and give in to the process.
To Nick & Meredith,
The space you have created here is a sanctuary. I can feel the love you’ve put into every aspect of this place!
Seeing your dream of this place become a reality is inspirational in itself. Thank you for all your encouragement this year, your support has meant so much to me.
With all my love,
Jessie & Bella”

Thank you for offering such a beautiful and grounded oasis to explore and create. Nick and Meredith are wonderful people who inspire, and hold true to their vision. Feeling grateful for this time, and music I now get to share with the world.”

“Nick & Meredith,
Lauren and I had an incredible experience in your space that was created out of love, vision, art, soul and faith. The impact of your efforts shine through in the recordings and art created here and it was an honor to have my songs fed by the musical waters the run through this land. We shall return in the Spring.”

“Thank you for creating such a beautiful, restorative space. While deep in the creative and collaborative process, having a place to anchor and recoup is a real gift. You all have something special here, and I can’t wait to return.
I’ll send much love to all of you from Seattle.
Following up on a short stint for writing in August, I’m officially the first repeat guest in the home!
Somehow, it felt even more like a second home this time around. Thank you for the space, the experience, and the friendship. I’m so proud of what we made, and for the chance to get to know the whole family even better.
Love you all, and I’ll leave it at that.”

“LEGEND, feels like working with family, but the good kind of working with family, where everyone listens and has opinions but works for the common good, not the wired kind of family. Working with Nick was a very positive experience. He helped ensure we had a creative space, were very comfortable with our recording gear, was great communicator and easy to work with in terms of vision & process. Super knowledgeable and insightful with studio gear, pulls great sounds, and takes the time to get things right rather than just being “fine”.”

“This album is about life, living it, changing, and taking control. It's about embracing fumbles and enjoying the triumphs. I am so proud of it and I love these songs with all my heart. It would have never been possible without my family and friends. Their continued support has allowed me to do what I love. Beyond that, this album's producer, Nick Bullock, was immensely important to making this a reality. Not only did he play on many of the songs, hire the musicians, convert my chord charts to something legible, and talk me through my reservations, but he pushed me to elevate my ideas and showed me that I could make a collection of songs of a caliber that I had thought was just a dream. For that I am grateful because this thing exists and it's wonderful: Thank you to anyone who listens.”
