When I Was Young

A six-track pivot toward nostalgic art-pop. Raspy vocals collide with brassy hooks and glitchy production to capture the restless ache of growing up.

It's like a neon-lit fever dream about your hometown that you can actually dance to.

A restless, brass-inflected meditation on the bittersweet ache of outgrowing your own history.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The triumphant but weary brass fanfare that opens the title track
The way the beat in Roots feels like it's tripping over itself before finding a steady pulse
The haunting vocal layering at the end of Run Away that feels like a ghost of a memory
