about

So these 7 tracks have been in the works since around the middle of 2013 and for a while I wasn't sure I could bring myself to completing it, but here we are.
There's a mixture of ambient music, a few pieces I wrote for classical guitar, and some folk songwriting. It's the culmination of many late nights working until my eyes gave up - or a string snapped - and I am incredibly proud of the final product.

I hope you enjoy the record!
(Hopefully you'll want to buy a physical copy later when it comes out!)

And to everyone who has supported me throughout the years, thank you: Maggie Danial, Mr Seymour & Mr Ladouceur, Abbey Frias, Travis Ion, Mr Loreto, Nick Rivero, Thomas Aucoin, Mori Macdonald, Sammy Keyes-Levine, Patrick Jedrzejcek, Josh Garcia, Amanda Canales, Emily Dunn, Christian Domingo, my parents, Jose and, of course, my entire highschool music class.
Also a huge thank you the artists and bands that have inspired me to continue creating and listening to music all this time.
