Sitting in Presence with Songwriter Eugene Kurolap

In this heart-centered episode, CJMiller sits down with singer-songwriter Eugene Kurolap, whose most recent release, “Nothing is Free,” reveals a cinematic evolution in his music. Eugene shares how songwriting isn’t something he forces—it arrives through antennae mode, a deep listening to the universe. The first half of a song, he says, is pure intuition. The second half? That’s when the mind steps in to shape it.From early choir days to strumming a guitar passed down by his father, Eugene discovered that music was always his Creative DNA. Today, he travels in an old laundry truck, playing wherever the road calls, intent on helping people slow down, breathe, and be present through sound.CJ and Eugene explore:What inspires a songThe power of presence in performanceBalancing words and sound in the creative processThe influence of artists like Trevor HallHis listener-led “Genie Club” music experienceLearn more or commission a personalized song at eugene-music.com Eugene is also available for crafting custom songs for anniversaries, weddings, and meaningful milestones—gifts that last a lifetime.Want to learn more about CJ Miller?
