Sun Room Audio: CD & Vinyl Pre-mastering

Just wanted to take time to thank all of the friends and family members who show support and belief in full time artists like me. It’s not an easy thing, and often misconstrued. We as music professionals are often questioned and judged about our path and choices. Often there is a stigma that we’re irresponsible, financially destitute, and have an inability to grow up. This requires a thick skin and an unwavering commitment to what fulfills us. Our industry is hard for outsiders to relate to and understand, and it’s unfortunate that often that means being dismissed, and pre-judged without any basis. They don’t understand the hard work, hustle, persistence, and special skill set required to do what we do for a living. I just want to send lots of love and strength to all the men and women out there that continue to endure these challenges and never lose sight of the goal, which is to get to sit at a desk like this everyday and do what we were born to do. Much love ❤️ 💪 🎶 #dowhatyoulove #artist #studiolife #perseverance
