about

This record was written over the course of a year’s time in which I quit my job, my wife and I sold or gave away 80% of our belongings, packed the rest into an RV, and began to travel North America full-time. All of these songs were written in different geographic locations, as well as immensely different environments. Up North was written outside of British Columbia near Banff National Park. One Revolution was written in the lush green forest of central Washington state. Bad Habits was written in the tiny town of Marfa, TX after viewing works of the artists Dan Flavin & Donald Judd. They all tend to pull context from their respective environments. Some with dreamy soundscapes, others with harsh elements.

It’s an honest reflection of what it feels like to go through the process of letting go of something. For me, it was many things. It was letting go of emotions like the fear and anxiety of instability. It was physical things with a sentimental value that I had amassed over the years. Letting go of just about every aspect of your comfortable lifestyle, and completely switching things up was quite the roller coaster, and I like to think I managed to capture the process of what that felt like for me.

During this time I experienced intense levels of isolation and solitude being away from noisy cities and bustling urban cores. Often only accompanied by the environments around me. Each place I spent time alone had its own song to sing. The Pacific Coast sings a very different song than the one heard in the Rocky Mountains, the central plains, or the desert of the southwest. With just a laptop, a pair of headphones, my Moog, and a midi keyboard, I feel like I was able to capture the essence of these environments in a unique way. The way I heard them. That was the most amazing part of the whole journey for me.
