Cover The Mirrors

A raw, analog-soaked tribute to a lost son. Fragile piano melodies and nasal, earnest vocals navigate the crushing weight of grief with flickering hope.

Find on Amazon

It's a beautiful, heart-shattering letter from a father to his son that you'll want to hear in the dark.

A devastatingly honest and warm-toned exploration of fatherly love and the crushing weight of sudden loss.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The devastatingly direct vocal crack during the final chorus of Oh Dorian.
The way the upbeat power pop tempo of Dollar Store masks the weight of the lyrics.
The long, fading piano coda on Letter To Agony that feels like a final goodbye.
