   I’ll have more to say later, but my album is out - bandcamp and streaming; Pay what you want on Bandcamp

     This is an intensely personal body of work; not just one of my “five albums to know me” but also something which helped me know myself

     The first main track, “Cast in Illusion” is what convinced me to finally look into the idea that perhaps I’ve been dealing with depression my entire life. For me, it’s about a childhood struggling with the bleakness of a limbic system that makes happiness seem alien

     “Lessons in Forgetting” is the first track I completed, about a year ago, and I distinctly remember finishing it and feeling unreserved peace for the first time in my life

     To me it’s about the struggle of facing and succumbing to systemic hostility from a culture that demands conformity
