My debut album ‘a permanent reminder’ is out on 3RD OCTOBER.
I sat in our spare bedroom with my home studio set up writing, recording, programming and mixing alone. Not just because that’s how it has often felt to be a disabled musician but because I wanted to fully hold on to something I could control; not my health, not how the world perceives me, but my music. It’s always been my music.
I have tried my hardest to not let my disability touch every detail of my life, but the truth is, that’s impossible. It affects how you feel, think, what you believe in and what you place your hope in. I put on a mask for the outside world, and sometimes I forget to take it off for myself. So, in some of those moments where I have been truly honest with myself, I wrote these 13 songs.
This album is full of grief, love, heartbreak, joy, fear, and hope.
I’m not sure what to expect putting this into the world but I just wanted it to exist and I’m truly proud of it. Can’t wait for you to hear it.
