about

With the world in such immense social and political disarray, it is easy to have a negative outlook and lose hope. After experiencing this personally, I decided to embark on a new project early in the year to provide myself a source of creativity and happiness. I believe that creating something whether it be music, visual art, poetry, or anything else is one of the few things that can give hope to its creator and it's listener/viewer/reader. Every single track on this LP was created with love, hope, and faith in the future and I hope that I succeeded in conveying this through the music.

On this project, I decided that I wanted to do everything completely and entirely independently. I created the art, produced the music, and duplicated the tapes all on my own. After so much time and creative energy put into the process, it is really rewarding to see the final product and I am so excited to put it into the world.

Love
