Listen to 10 Albums from 2024 on Spotify
First off, I just wanted to thank any of you who have taken the time to listen to the music I released this year, read anything I wrote or engaged with my online presence in any way. Being an artist in 2024 meant screaming into the void more than ever before so I very sincerely thank you for spending even a fragment of your time with my work.
Attention spans have never been shorter. Streaming platforms are actively trying to deprioritize the album format. Quantity over quality is the order of the day. This is the first year in recent memory where I felt myself straining to highlight projects that had a sense of completeness to them, but thankfully, they were out there. I hope you find something in these playlists that you truly love.
I’ll have som new music next year as well as some big news about celebrating the past. Until then, take care of yourselves and your families this holiday season.
