My debut EP, Evergreen, is out in the world and I wanted to thank and acknowledge all of the beautiful and talented folks who made it a reality.
Pictures 1-3 were taken at
@starlightstudioswa where I sang the songs in our living room over the course of so many patient and creatively rewarding sessions with
@audio.alexander - Alex was the one who recorded and mixed and encouraged me to finish this record, believed in me and my music, and captured the warmth and intimacy in a way that only someone with an attuned, open, and thoughtful ear could have done.
Pictures 4-5 are of my best friend, creative partner, and fiance
@jenisethatsme who has endlessly supported me, my music, and any wild/crazy visions that I have to realize them with me. She filmed, directed, edited, and color graded all of the visual promotion behind the releases and I am so excited to see her filmmaking develop and grow and am grateful to be with someone who sees me and the worlds within the music.
Pictures 6, 7, & 9 are of the talented and timeless
@thefriendshipquilt who, when I saw them play live, was taken to another world and am not ashamed to admit I cried because it was so moving and beautiful. I knew I needed them on the EP, and am grateful they said yes and added such depth to the music.
Picture 8 is of
@zachclarkis who photographed, designed, and risograph printed the cover art for the two singles and the EP. I met him at a zine fest in Seattle and immediately felt in his art a slow, thoughtful, nature-inspired humanity that felt like what I hoped to express in my music.
Picture 10 is a bts shot of
@jenisethatsme and her parents making it rain on the one day in the PNW we needed it to for the video but it didn't haha.
The last picture is me as a young lad cheesin' and playing the guitar. He would be so happy to know that his songs are out in the world!!
Thank you to everyone who has supported my music and encouraged me! Evergreen EP is out now and all of that, but truly, deeply - thank you! More to come soon 💚
