About

optimistic is, at its core, an album about leaving things behind, about the all-consuming places we go. but it is also an album about hope, about putting things together, about the light that makes its way through cracks.

Favourite Moment

i was in mental health treatment, basically rehab, for most of January plus the first week of the Challenge. they're not great moments, but they're ones i remember: sitting there with my notebook in beteween group therapies and meditations, catching time to jot down lyrics. they had a fucking Steinway in one of the group therapy rooms where the AA meetings were held, and i played that thing whenever i got a chance. it was so out of tune.

Advice

yes! i have THREE brain cells now!
