“Taking Pictures” — On all streaming platforms soon(tm) Thank you all so much for the support on the “Concrete” music video!!! I’m so excited for you guys to hear this project in full, these are some of the best songs I’ve ever done and I’m super proud of them. I’ll share more information once it’s out, but for now I have a lot of people to thank: - @dannysaursss for his unbelievable sound design work on “Concrete”, and being such an amazing musician to make music with - @_dokeshii_ for getting Concrete off the ground, helping out immensely with writing and contributing killer backing vocals at That Part of the song - @augie.rodrigues & @tony.a.11 for indulging me with this project by spending some of spring break helping me film this music video - All of the amazing students and staff at RCNJ, especially those who helped me out in the studio, without whom this EP would simply not exist - And of course last but not least @shinychuus , who in addition to shooting the cover art & holding the camera for half the music video’s shots, kept me sane throughout this entire project’s production. You are forever my muse. I love you! Pre-save link will get its own post once I have one to give you. Thank you all for following this dream of mine with me. I can’t thank you all enough. I’ll see you on the 14th :)

The new Secret Animals single, “Cruel”, comes out on February 14th! It’s available right now for pre-save and pre-order wherever you get your music at the links in our bios. We are so immensely proud of this one, and we can’t wait for you to hear it :)

Secret Animals, our self-titled debut album, will be released on December 15th. It is available for pre-save and pre-order right now at the links in our bios. This album is the culmination of over a year’s worth of collaborative songwriting and production, and it’s coming to you on the one year anniversary of our first single, Roar. We’re both immensely proud of the work we’ve put into this project, and we hope that you enjoy listening to it as much as we did making it. A special thanks goes out to Anika @anikas_art_acc for the fantastic line art featured on the cover of this album; to Bobby Previte for allowing us to use samples from his “Explorer 1” on Unravel; and to everybody who has supported Secret Animals thus far in any way. We appreciate you all so very much. Mark your calendars for December 15th—we’ll see you there. :)

“Flying” w/ xvi — Out now! Secret Animals single #2! Making music with other people has worked wonders for the evolution of my artistic output, and I hope that it comes across in this new song. It came about, as did the cover art, during a trip to Florida, between rest stops and hotels in towns the population of which you could count on your hands. We’re part of something greater than ourselves when we’re moving faster than anyone can catch us. I hope that you enjoy “Flying”, and do be on the lookout for more music both of my own and in collaboration with others in 2024. ❤️

“Roar” w/ xvi — 12/15/23 Absolutely thrilled to announce the debut of our collaborative alias “Secret Animals”!!! It has been a blast working on material with somebody so talented—do yourself a favor and check out the xvi catalog on Spotify. There’s more where this came from and we can’t wait to share it with you guys. Pre-save link in bio. <3

“Instead” — 7/14/23 A collection of tracks that didn’t make the cut for one reason or another from 2021–2023. Purchase the album on Bandcamp for a secret bonus track! ——— “Originally in this album's “about” section on Bandcamp was the lone sentence "'Instead' is a very powerful word." It's easy to write or say things without realizing their strength, or how much they pertain to you. "Instead" was an album about rejecting complacency that was being written in the time where I was most complacent. That word means something else to me now, but this is what it meant before:”

“There’s Something I Want To Say” — 7/7/23 The first twzzl release on handmade CDs; pre-orders are live now for just $10 incl. shipping! Get yourself one & stream the title track on Bandcamp, link in bio <3 This album is especially important to me, underscored heavily by a period of immense personal growth and self-realization. I’m excited to bring it into your hands, and I hope you find something special in it too. Cover photography by the illustrious @ryannair05 :)

“Twizzlestorm” — On streaming now 14 tracks from the past four years that I haven’t released. I had to let them free at some point, and I think now’s a better time than ever. There are a lot of different genres here from all different points throughout my career, and if you’re interested, you can look at the Bandcamp site (in my bio) for a more in-depth look into the story for each song, as well as for the album as a whole. Thanks!
