my new album salvation is finally yours.
i have a lot to say so hopefully i don’t forget anything.
i began working on this album during the toughest time ever in my life. as you may know, i lost my mom in july of 2022. at that time i didn’t even know if i wanted to even continue making music and being an artist. i felt lost, i felt gone. the thing i did realize was that the only thing that was giving me some sort of comfort was music and playing guitar. i played and played, for days on end, mostly for therapy, but then i discovered that songs were being born through those days. i flew out to minneapolis in november of 2022 and met producer and now brother for life
@strawberrius and asked him to help me bring these ideas to life. for the next several months, i created this body of work with john, and my other collaborator and bro
@kevinjbowe . there were many laughs, many conversations, bánh mì’s and ramen dates, and great songs created through it all. as i was writing this album, i began to hear my mother’s voice in my head, telling me to keep going, which was the absolute guiding light for me on this whole journey. i’ve been through some shit lemme tell ya, but through these ups and downs in my life, this music was born, and it’s by far the most personal album i’ve ever made. shout out to everyone that made this music possible, the musicians who played on the record, my brother john for producing and mixing every song, and to my co writer kevin, who is as funny as he is talented. and to all of you out there that give me the chance to live my dream. this one’s for you, and this one’s for my mom, who lives deep in this music and in me. 💙
turn it up. let’s go. 💫
