Character Actor
(a collection of 10 songs, but not a debut album)
How do you avoid the sophomore slump? write two records at the same time.
In early spring of 2018, I was finishing up my debut album. I spent 2 and a half years writing, recording and producing the damn thing (occasionally getting help from a few cool friends) and was finally getting it mixed by a real big shot mix engineer who worked on some really really cool records. At the same time, I started writing some new songs and by the time we finished mixing my debut album, I realised I had a second album pretty much done. at second album is Character Actor. I really love it.
And, because it took me about 4 months to write and produce all 10 songs, i’m not as precious about it as my debut, which is sitting comfortably on my hard drive waiting to see the light of day - probably in the second half of this year (if I want to keep to my promise of releasing one new song a month in 2019).
But an afterthought, it is not.
I shot the cover art for the album and the singles, directed the video for the first single, and made a short movie that’ll be out after all 10 tracks are released on April 5th.
I can’t wait!
