What I Need to Say

My all time favorite records, the ones I listen to over and over again, have this spirit to them. They rise and fall, build and break, bringing out emotions with every word and every note. This spirit comes from the passion and hardwork of the people behind the music. This record could not have been possible if it weren’t for the incredible group of friends that worked on each of these songs with me. They would stay in the studio late into the night even if there part was finished, to give support and suggestions to better the music. Every person brought a unique perspective and sound that took these songs further than I ever imagined. I watch them pour their hearts into the music and saw the excitement in them as the songs started to come together. I might have written these songs but it was my band who brought them to life. I hope you enjoy them as much as we enjoyed making them for you. I get so much joy out of sharing my creations with the world and hope they bring you joy as well.
