An open, honest, vulnerable letter
going into 2024
01.03.2024
2023 did not go as planned.
i didn’t be a musician as much as I wanted to; and I lost a little faith in myself.
I didn’t release a song I’ve been wanting to release; I kept saying “I’ll do it next month.”
I wrote so many ‘parts’ of songs but never a full song.
I only played at 3 new places….after having contacted 50.
I ran out of motivation to be a musician so, I threw myself into my work, the work that pays the bills.
I’m not one for new years resolutions, but I always say I’ll better myself in some way; and I always do follow through with that vague resolution.
In 2024, I want to be a better musician.
I’ll keep contacting places, even if that means I contact 100.
I’ll finally write a song without hesitation; as one of my professors quoted Dick Grove: “America doesn’t give a damn, just write it.”
And maybe by the end of this week, I’ll finally upload that song that’s been sitting in my back pocket for release.
