im practicing for tour. guess what song i was about to play here. ill give you a hint: there are lyrics in it. if you dont come to a show, you will never find out what i was going to sing, so you should probably come
unbelievably excited to announce that @0perelly will be opening for majority of shows on tour this fall. truly cannot wait to hear this special music every night. openers for london and los angeles are tba. see u soon
we started paper doll 3 years ago, before my first album was out. my life was changing rapidly and i felt faith and magic enter my world in unavoidable ways. part of me wants to wax poetic about every intricacy of that experience, but im probably better off trying to just let the songs speak for themselves.
what needs to be mentioned though, is the overwhelming care/ time/ belief that some people have given to this record. here are some much needed thank yous
@jakesbigday and @gabewax executive produced and mixed this monstrosity and saw every little detail of it through- I kind of don’t have words for them. They recognized the ceiling of what this album could be and somehow reached beyond it.
@socialmediasupersoldier , dear friend, hometown hero and legend in the making, who lent so much time and style to this project
@alejandrademers_ , who made every video with me- we ran around California, bruising our feet on desert rocks, hoping to capture the essence of some lonely and golden girlish freedom
@kellymulroy and @muhfaka , two loving voices of reason in my disorganized life, who provide me guidance and support always
And so many more special people that i cant thank enough- @nomograph.mastering@jacksonnshanks@mnpreite@sarloson@danielchaee@hellacello@sambks@_oliviakaplan_@celiababinimusic@daffoband@carolades@alexfischel@benalleman@mookel_sooks@ripsnelly@waylon.dean@dylnday@bongoboy3@corin_horn@mikeclevidencerobinson@bucknife_@laurenjuzang@greg_aram
A finished album can seem like a miraculous thing that emerges from the mist with no force or precision, but there are alot of tiresome and unglamorous moments that make it possible. There are days I have no choice but to look up and thank whatever is in the sky for placing me near these special people who stick with me thru it all. I’m not sure how I got so lucky.
THANK YOU

im excited and overwhelmed and grateful and i also haven’t really gathered my thoughts on everything yet. so for now, heres a bit of the music video for “my secret”
