As I sit and write this, I can't help but reflect on how amazing this year has been. In fact, 2017 hands down might have been the best year of my life thus far. From all the shows we've played, to the wonderful new friends we've made, to the love we've strengthened with old friends, and the new songs that came forth as a result.... it's all so overwhelming to think about.
I sometimes get so caught up in what still needs to be done, that I hardly ever appreciate what has already come to pass. We released an album, but I'm already working on the next one. We released a music video, but we've got more video content in the works. We've booked and played more out-of-state shows than ever before through a tour we organized by ourselves. More press, more parties, more memorable shows, more new music! I've written some of my favorite songs this year that I can't wait to record. Heck, I EVEN BUILT MY FIRST CUSTOM GUITAR.
UGH, my thoughts are a jumbled mess right now. We played our last show of the year last night, but we still got another next week in NJ. And then another one in Feb. And then some new songs that we're gonna demo. Then some REALLY interesting videos coming soon as well (seriously, subscribe to our YouTube Right. NOW). That's because that's how I work. It's the only way I operate.
However, after cleaning out my phone and going through pictures of all that we've accomplished, all the opportunities we've been given, all the new experiences we've had, and new stages we've graced, it really hit me like a tidal wave. It's all for you. It's all about you. It's all possible because of you. I love you. I miss you.
So with that said, here's to you
2018. We've been waiting for you our entire lives...
