Hello. So. I'm releasing music on Friday. It's an important one for me. Lots of songs, pretty much all of which are a collaboration with Rory Sweeney

It's kind of a concept record. It's about wanting everything or nothing. It's about never feeling satisfied. It's about pain, release, otherworldly creatures. It's about coping. Hoping. Connection.
There are 7 songs, 8 on Bandcamp and Soundcloud, but 8 everywhere else, as Spring Came is already out on Spotify under Rory's name, but it makes sense in the amalgam of songs on Hungry Ghost. There's a dream recording. There's a dubby thing. There's an almost acapella thing. There's some synthpop, and there's a song about falling in love.
It's my first EP, and really, a lot of blood, sweat, and (honestly) some tears went into its making, but it's finally here. It's coming out. I've kind of figured out what I want to do with my music through this record, and I've learned so much about making music in the process.
Stream it. Save it. Share it. It's experimental, it's emotional, it's not everyone's bag—but if you have the time, listen to some of it, and if you're into it, share it with others. It helps me a lot. I'm just so delighted to finally release these tracks, to finish a project, to be proud of it, and then to get back into making more.
For everyone who has supported me so far with this—helped create it, come to gigs of mine (even the super janky early ones where I was figuring it all out)—thank you. Thanks for supporting me. Thanks for the love and encouragement. I can't wait for people to hear some of these tracks, and I can't wait to celebrate it all with those who are coming to the release gig on Saturday.
You can presave the EP through the link in my bio, and the songs drop at midnight on Friday, October 18.
