So today, one of my best friends, Richard Marc, has just released his debut single, ‘Put It In A Postcard,’ and on his birthday no less! I will always share his music on all of my social media but I wanted to share this on here because, while it is completely Richard’s song, I did help with the writing of it and I’m proud of my part in that. It’s a super cool, catchy song. Please go and check it out!

The Honest EP is now complete. So now what?
So that’s the update. The EP itself may be done with all five songs and their accompanying music videos out in the world but there’s more to come. There’s still some fun stuff in the works so keep your eyes open!

And the ‘Honest’ music video is officially out!
This video was so fun to put together and I always end up grinning when I watch it. Putting this EP together has been such a rollercoaster and so much of the process has gone unseen. There were ridiculously fun moments, incredibly stressful moments, beyond weird moments… It was one of the most unique periods of my life. So I really wanted to share that with you guys and it felt pretty fitting for not only the last song of the EP, but for a song called ‘Honest.’
