7/20. Golden View. The album. It’s finally here. 3 1/2 years of work into this project. I’ve never poured more into a project. As a songwriter, producer, and artist, this pushed me past what I ever dreamt of being capable of. It was living these moments, writing these songs, that I grew into who I am. This project took an army and I am so incredibly grateful to have collaborators of this caliber that I am able to call my friends. full credits post is next! But I want to give a special shoutout to for being my right hand man with this project. Kevin spent weeks with me, every day, helping me. Whether it was his musicianship, his ear, his feedback or running pro tools for me while I sang a million back ground vocals, kevin was involved on this from the very beginning. My brother, it is an honor to have you in the studio with me and our sessions are some of my best memories. Thank you bro 💙I also want to give a shoutout to who helped me tremendously with not only her songwriting but also the visual content of the album. Whether it was bouncing ideas, trying out different shots, editing them down, Kelley was my right hand throughout that whole process. It takes a true friend to wake up at 5 am and meet me in a field in Leipers fork for a photoshoot. Kelley took this album cover (FILM BY THE WAY) and 2 of my single covers. All of which are beautiful and unique and I’m in love with them. I love you kells. I am incredibly grateful for you and your involvement in this project. Thank you for helping me turn this dream into a a reality. And a final shoutout to for mixing this record, and for His mentorship and guidance through the whole post production process. I never knew my songs could sound this good. And they wouldn’t without you man. Thanks for putting in so much time on this with me.
This project is about growth, it’s about changing perspective. It’s about heartbreak and loss, and about redemption and love. I was very unhappy for a long time. But I can say now that I am happy. I am free. I understand gratitude. I have found a view of gold. This is my story. This is my journey. I can’t wait to share that with you.
