WE WON.

Many of you who reached out might already know. I’ve been trying to process it all and the last few days have been especially busy while I prepped for a show and met with elected officials and non-profit organizations who want to understand the solutions needed to have a home again.

Back in March, this was just me entering a contest hoping maybe something would happen.

Somehow, through every round, every matchup, every IG story, every text message, and every vote, we made it all the way through and won the inaugural Cloud Microphones Get Lifted Artist Tournament.

778 votes that I will never forget.

Because of your support, I’ll be traveling to the Cloud Microphones studio in Tucson, AZ to record 𝐦𝐲 𝐧𝐞𝐱𝐭 𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐠 with the acclaimed and legendary, Grammy-winning mixing engineer Bob Horn!!

I really can’t thank you all enough, whether you voted, shared the voting link, or just offered emotional support and stability through it all. It means more than I can put into words.

After everything in the last 500 days, especially after losing my home in the Palisades Fire, your kindness and grace have been among the few things inspiring me to move forward and make music. This opportunity feels especially surreal.

Thank you for believing in me. Thank you for joining me from Day 1. We’re only getting started.

Big congratulations to LAST GOOD CHAD for winning the Get Lifted Artist Tournament!

A huge thank you to every artist who participated, every supporter who tuned in, and everyone who voted throughout the competition. The talent and energy from this tournament made it something truly special.

As the tournament winner, Last Good Chad Will now head to Tucson, AZ to collaborate with Bob Horn at Cloud Studios and work on new music.

This is only the beginning. Stay tuned.

Should I add drums?

If your answer is yes, I’m in a contest where I can bring it to life.
