By age 12, I used to be writing songs. In ninth grade, they picked me because the first-place winner of the expertise present and I gained a Bubbakoos reward card! All through the remainder of highschool although, I began to expertise the primary indicators of “artist angst.” I might suppose to myself “nicely that is by no means going to grow to be a profession or something so I’ll simply cease,” which is so ridiculous to me as a result of I used to be solely a young person. A few of my friends at school advised me to start out a music YouTube channel and I didn’t do it as a result of I didn’t consider in myself. If I might return and inform my youthful self to only consider, I might have been able to much more. It wasn’t till I began school at Monmouth College, that my songwriting began to flourish and I took issues critically. I recorded a demo EP known as “For You,” with Matt Dubrow and Gabriel Sanderson. Then after I met my school associate, Max Wolf, we labored on turning that EP right into a full-length debut album and retitled it “Diary of Desires.” Sadly, it by no means got here to fruition as a result of we parted methods earlier than ending it, however each of us took measures to protect what we made on onerous drives and such, so it’s one in all my targets to launch it sooner or later!

However that’s not me. I prefer to experiment with completely different appears and sounds and I bought to do this with this music video as a result of we borrowed appears from each decade (60’s, 70’s, 80’s & 90’s) which was fulfilling for me.
