Short story: This is my cover of Julia Michaels's "How Do We Get Back To Love." I added/wrote a second verse and a bridge to finish an already amazing song. 

Long story: I first heard this song on the finale HBO's "Girls," and it was awesome! I tried to find the full version, but it was never officially released. I knew it was Julia Michaels, and later found out that she wrote it with Jack Antonoff . This song was so good, but I couldn't find the finished version anywhere. One night, I decided to write lyrics to add a second verse and a bridge to finish the song. A few months later I recorded my own version of it. Hope you like it!

How Do We Get Back To Love (Julia Michaels Cover + original)

I co-wrote this song and submitted it to a songwriting contest held by one of my favorite podcasts "And The Writer Is." I had the idea and beginning lyrics for this song for a few months, but I just didn't complete it. This is a special song for me because it's about losing someone who I was very close to and I hoped that one day I would bring it to life. A couple months later, I saw the post for the songwriting contest and I knew I had to submit this song. Time wasn't on my side when I finally scheduled a session to work on it because the deadline was a little over a month away. I still was able to finish it in 4 sessions and in less than a month. In the end, I didn't win, but I am very happy I was able to write and record my first original song. This is the story behind "Eternity."

Eternity

This song is still a work in progress, and this is the result of two sessions that were about a year apart. The first session was right after I left my career in radio in 2019, and the next was after I reminded myself to focus on what drives me: being creative. At first, I imagined this to be a pop/rock/electronic song, but it morphed into this 90s house music throwback after hearing my collaborator/producer/studio mentor play around with some things. So I wanted that to be the direction for this. Still looking forward to putting the finishing touches on this in the near future!
