Announcing The Honest EP (Sunburst Sessions)

So, today, I made an exciting little announcement on social media…

It’s a bit scary to share these videos since they’re unlike anything I’ve ever posted before but it’s exciting too. These stripped back performances gave the songs a new feel, raw and emotional, and I’m eager to see what people think of these alternate versions.

And again, a massive thanks to Richard, my accompanist, videographer, and the man behind the Sunburst Sessions; to Zefan Susanto, my accompanist; Olivia of Olivia B-S Photography, videographer; and Nicky Trill, our wonderful engineer. This project would not have been possible without each and every one of them and I could not be more grateful, especially considering how unwell I was feeling on the day.

‘Honest’ Music Video – Out Now!

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.’

BEHIND THE SONG: ‘Honest’

So today I posted a new video on YouTube, talking about the story behind ‘Honest,’ the long journey from idea to final song, and what it was like working on it with the amazing songwriters that are Lauren Aquilina, Richard Marc, and Jonathan Whiskerd. This is the title track and final single of the Honest EP and is a tribute to the honesty in the four songs that came before, as well as to being authentic and honest, even when it’s really hard.

If you haven’t listened to the song yet, you can find it here and the music video will be out soon! I hope you enjoy the song and I hope it’s interesting to hear some of the behind the scenes of the writing process.

As always, thank you for listening to my songs, watching my videos, and reading my posts. It means more than I can say.
