i’m disappointed in myself. i’ve been trying so hard to finish this song i had planned to release tomorrow. i’ve become so critical of myself that i’ll do 1000 takes and hate every single one of them. most days i have to fight myself to actually believe these songs matter & deserve a life. with that being said, ‘GhostShips’ will be coming out a later date. i’ve never not met a deadline i’ve put for myself in my entire career of making music. it’s just getting harder & harder out here to have motivation for anything.

the show on friday at @themonarch_music is still happening. woke up today feeling sick as shit but i’ll be good by then. if you’d like to hear the song in full, i’ll be playing it that night. i could use a good night of friendship & family so if you have some free time, would love to see you there.
