Scared Demo

Not too sure, I just make music🤷‍♂️

I write songs I can relate to. I find it freeing and I hope I can invoke emotions through rhythm and words. I hope you like what you hear and are willing to share my music with your friends. 

This page runs on passion, not profit.
If the music gave you something – a feeling, a thought, a breath – you already gave back.

But if you feel like fueling more of it, every bit of support helps keep this sonic spaceship flying.

Thanks for being here. That’s rare enough.

If you find yourself listening more than once or a little longer than usual, please like, follow, and repost as this means the most musicians trying to grow their base, please. This platform as others is not based on merit. Thank you.

I'm a black sheep, I make music, I suck at mixing, I can't sing, I love music, I NEED music

I love music. Since April '21 I am discovering the endless possibilities of producing my own in my little spare time. Currently I am learning how to properly mix and master so there is less output for now.
