It’s hard to believe it’s been five years since the world shut down. During those early days of lockdown, I spent most of my time cooped up in a small L.A. apartment, watching my roommate and good friend,
@martytheactor , dabble on the keys and guitar, writing music day after day.
I’ve always found it magical how effortlessly he can create catchy songs on a whim. His creativity became an anchor, keeping me grounded in a world that felt like it was shifting unpredictably each day.
One of the songs he wrote on the very first day of lockdown became the soundtrack to our Covid era. While slowly losing our sanity, we shot and edited a music video for that song while in quarantine. Above are a few BTS bits of the process.
Now, five years later, he’s releasing the track and music video, along with a bunch of other tunes—some made in quarantine, some not—on his new album King of the World. Check out the full video and all his new music on his Instagram (
