I’m always auditing my pursuits, my drives, my ambitions. I ask myself – as I lay what I think are bricks, building what I think are stairs toward what I think is a higher self – is what I hold really a shovel? Is the height I’m building toward actually a depth? And when I

I’m going to be traveling the world to make my monthly songs moving forward.  I’ll still be dropping monthly, as usual – this time, though, all the songs will be made in different cities all over the world.  Once I’m done, all the songs will make up my new album called MADE IN /

I’m writing this at 1AM in New Orleans.  My first stop as I make an album around the world.   So far – lotta firsts for me.  I tried gumbo.  And jumbalaya.  And a poboy.  Crab cake.  A beignet.  Some big shrimp that I had to de-shell myself.  I had dinner on a steamboat out on

Like any good story, my album made around the world will start from home.  Though this song’s called ‘Indiana’, it was made in San Francisco; the girl who inspired it was born in Indiana.  The polaroid I’m using for the cover was taken in my apartment here in the city.  To me,

When confronted with something I’m afraid of, or makes me nervous, or gives me anxiety, I imagine the fear being a manifestation of my younger self, like it’s the voice of me at six years old. In the theater of my heart, I take the hand of my younger self and I lead him to what

I’m writing this at 8:16PM in Miami.  My second stop as I make an album around the world. I just got back to my place.  It was windy and grey today and even though it looks like winter, the water was the perfect temperature.  I couldn’t help but stay in.  The sun was going down,

If you're struggling to make progress on a project, schedule it for the first hour of the day every day. Get out of bed, then start doing whatever it is that needs doing. You'll make progress each day, and then it'll be done. This is how to defeat "I don't have time for it".

Here’s my new song, it’s called ‘ASAP’. Imagine me four floors up in an apartment two blocks from Bourbon St in New Orleans. Imagine it hot and humid, and see the lightning from a thunderstorm banging light into my place. I’m standing up at the kitchen bar because the

Here’s my new song, ‘Hole Hearted’, available everywhere.  It was late when I started writing this one in Miami.  My apartment smelled like the beach and drying towels and I hadn’t been to either yet.  I’d written several songs before it, many of which felt like Miami, but they

I’m writing this at 9:44PM in Hollywood.  And I’m specifying Hollywood instead of Los Angeles because Los Angeles is too massive not to make the distinction.  I am in Hollywood, specifically; and to put a finer point on it – I’m in The Hollywood Dell; a neighborhood within

I’ve signed with EMPIRE. They’re a Grammy Award winning record label who played a part in the careers of Kendrick Lamar, Anderson .Paak, XXXTentacion, among several other household names, and I’m honored to be a part of that legacy. They’re an independent label, too – one of the

New song this Friday!

Just dropped my new song. This one was born as I was baked homemade bread in a little apartment while the cold slowly pushed through the windows. It was made with cotton candy pink mountains on the horizon as the sun set. It was made while we saw a young moose on the side of the

I just left everything behind. No keys to a home in my pocket. Nomad, fully. My old apartment’s empty. My family all got together to have some pizza together. My Dad and Mom grabbed this selfie at the airport. And now I’m writing this from a city I’ve never been, in an

There’s a stark brutality to Fargo. There are no mountains on the horizon. It’s flat. Your eyes see Fargo and only Fargo and then the sky. Like maybe Fargo is all that exists. It’s cold. A Local said, “I don’t know why anyone lives here,” as a half joke.   The lonely cold makes

Just dropped my new song. It's about the moment you see the role you've played in your present darkness; when you stop pointing the finger, when you realize - 'I am ultimately responsible'. The title sounds like self-loathing, but seeing yourself or a difficult situation
