WHISPER FAIRIES

Recorded in December 2023.  All music written and performed by Justin Thomas Mank.

Happy to announce my first studio recording in 2 years. I recorded Winter Blues towards the end of December last year (2023). I've dealt with seasonal depression for some time now. This track symbolizes my acknowledgement of this, but also my strength to find light in each day leading up to warmer days. Thank you for listening.
