"Dang" drops March 2nd, the day after National Horse Protection Day, which is a coincidence and in no way related to this release. I want to be very clear about this.
First new one in a while. Artwork by me (photograph of horse)

"Food, Water, Fuel" is out now :') this is the first song I've released under my given name, which feels appropriate, as it's about a recent time in my life when I was doing some soul searching.
I found myself craving what felt like incompatible forces: autonomy/adventure and connection/rootedness. Ultimately, I've realized that the right environment doesn't feel like a compromise. Rather, it's necessary and possible to find the community that will amplify and actualize your freakiest ideas.
Here's to all my freaks! I'm all hunkered down, when will you reach me?
I'm already having such a great time on tour. Only 37 shows left to go! Thank you to everyone who has been showing me love on these first few stops.
Here's a cover of "Wouldn't it Be Nice" that I recorded in the woods outside of the cabin where I recorded my new record. Stay tuned for more new music :)
Big announcement! Calling @damien.verrett a new project feels a little ridiculous. This body of work really began when I first picked up a guitar over 20 years ago.
Through the different bands and genres Iāve played in, I often felt I needed a container for the straight up finger pickinā, singer-songwritinā tunes that slipped through the cracks.
Itās taken time, but I finally feel confident in my skin, with my craft and creativity. Veils and costumes are fun, but nothing compares to true stories stirring real air.
I donāt know if what I have right now is an āalbum,ā but it is a batch of music you havenāt heard yet. You might even catch me playing it live soon š
Thanks for the support and for all the love throughout the years xoxo
It's the first day of summer and "no reason" is out now :')
I'm so so proud of this track. It's about candy flipping
Huge shout out to @guardianofthegalexi for nailing tumbling passes for 30 minutes straight so I could snap the picture for the album art
Happy summer, y'all! I've got a good feeling about this one
My favorite thing about music is that itās an endless source of self-discovery and skill-building. For years, Iāve dreamt of reaching a point where I could handle every part of the process myselfāfrom writing and performing to engineering, mixing, mastering, and even designing the artwork.
āNo Reasonā drops this Friday, and I donāt think Iāve ever been this excited to release a song. It feels like the culmination of years of trial and errorāgrinding out my stats until I could finally step back, hear the finished product, and say with confidence: āthis effing slaps.ā
Itās also the most fully realized version yet of what Iāve been calling āemo houseāāmy attempt to fuse emotional, guitar-driven music with the energy of a dancefloor banger.
This one comes out on the first day of summer, which is no accident. Canāt wait for you to hear it :]
