Patches & Scraps
hardcover (2025)
Meet Patches and Scraps, two quirky calico cats who bring laughter, mischief, and endless fun to their family! Whether they’re chasing yarn balls, playing the piano, or getting their heads stuck in Kleenex boxes, these nutty felines are always up to something. Unlike most cats, Patches and Scraps come when called, cuddle like dogs, and just want to please-well, most of the time. With playful rhymes and whimsical illustrations, Patches and Scraps is a heartwarming story that celebrates friendship, adventure, and the joy of having a furry best friend (or two). Perfect for young readers, cat lovers, and anyone who enjoys a lighthearted tale full of personality!

If you feel like you haven’t seen me in your feed for a while, it’s because I’ve been in the studio getting this new record done. But, I’m happy to say, the wait is over: All Love, my ninth studio album, is out now and I can’t wait to hear what you think.
I made the record in Nashville, of course, with producer Matt McClure (Blake Shelton, most recently) and a studio full of amazing musicians. By now I know the playbook, and All Love came together organically.
I didn’t go into the studio with a theme or a hook… I knew I had enough new songs to make a record, but it wasn’t until I was done that I realized what happened. The collection really leans into the idea of love, whether it’s pure love songs (“You Go Girl,” “All Love”, “Walls”,) or songs about stuff I love (“Coffee,” “Beach Ready”).
I hope you like the good vibes. Please let me know your thoughts after you give All Love a listen.
Best, Richard
