A year ago this week I released my debut album. And somehow 3 months later the Houston Chronicle called it the best album of 2023. (Still kinda crazy that that happened, shout out Joey Guerra)
And sometime between here and there, I was inspired to dive back into the studio and create more art. To dig deeper into this collection of songs. There’s a quote from Marvin Gaye, and to paraphrase “These can’t be the only notes in the world, there’s got to be other notes some place, in some dimension, between the cracks on the piano keys.”
And really that’s why I’ve decided to make this new version of FEEL. I’m calling it Feel - Stripped. Part stripped, part reimagined, part live.
I believe in these songs and ideas so much I wanted to figure out if there was more to discover. There had to be other ways we could present these stories to the world. There had to be new exciting routes to take. There had to be more music to find.
And so, along side Ty Robins, Ben Rothberg, and Colby Hooks, we started late night sessions. Long after everyone was in bed asleep, we went to work with nothing but “What if” to guide us. We didn’t over think. We sincerely let the music guide us to where it wanted to go. And MAN am I excited about where we went.
And so, to celebrate the first birthday of my debut, FEEL- Stripped, will be out Friday with my new single, MINE- Stripped, out today.
You can stream it every where you listen to music.
Give it a share and listen and let me know what you think.
Listen today to MINE, and I will see you all Friday. 🤟🏼
❤️- TQ
