Happy Halloween! In the spirit of spoopy szn, what’s scarier than being vulnerable and expressing deep emotion on god. The title of this went from Strawberry Cough to Dialects (name of the artwork and a topic in therapy that represents two truths happening at once, sometimes conflicting) to Growing Pains because truly the lyrics represent being forthright with making sound decisions no matter how inconvenient or terrifying it is, and you just hope that your love and dedication are noticed in the long run, because before you’re with your person, you want to be your own best person. Artwork, concept, and production by me, lyrics and singing by my friend Jessica Zalzman.

Growing Pains

Turn It Up!

Making Moves

This is a song of self discovery and perseverance. When we're able to come to the realization that we've always had that little something special inside, that seed waiting dormant for just the right time to grow...That moment...Sometimes you just gotta kick in the door and demand yo spot!

Many thanks to Cortney and Flex for their incredible contributions in taking an idea and bringing it to life. Shout out to Lot 3 Audio for help with mix and master!

I wrote this song for a few reasons. One, I like working with Cortney Hesse. Two I like working with Joe Herrera. Three's for me. 

I hope I've done them justice.

Cliff Manswell Interview on Reggae Evolution with DJRJ

I was born in America but grew up in South Africa. My parents were really into music so they introduced my brother and I to music all over the world. My dad even owned a music studio in Africa at one point so I was just very used to having a studio in my life at a young age.
Now, I have a degree in audio engineering. While I spent many years singing in bands throughout Texas, I never lost my love for composing, songwriting and producing.
