about

A collection of songs I recorded in my living room from January-April 2019.

It would mean the world to me if you gave em a listen.

Super big thanks to my house mates for letting me make noise, thanks to Andres for learning and recording these songs in a single day, thanks to Patrick for letting me bum his bass, thanks to Chris and Jack for being my live band, thanks to Nathan for being a dude, thanks to Maddie for putting up with me, thanks to my job for being such a joke that I'm able to upload these while at work.

I hope to see you at a show sometime!
