Sometimes we feel unstable. Sometimes we feel like we're going to explode. Sometimes we have exploded.
I've caused a lot of damage in relationships over the years. Mania is a beast. But also, we are powerful.
That's what this song is about.
New single - "Back Away"
Happy Halloween!
My new single, "Back Away," is exclusively available for purchase on #bandcamp until December 13th. At that time, it should be streaming and purchasable most anywhere you can find music.
I decided to release early on Bandcamp because I've had a lot of traction here on the fediverse with bandcamp sales, and I want to kind of have that exclusive start for the fediverse.
I appreciate all of you. My music is the most listened to it's ever been, and that's mostly thanks to this community. Thank you.
Anyway. Check out the new single here:
You can also find "Back Away" already in rotation with @radiofreefedi !
Whoa. Already at 100 streams on bandcamp. That's really cool for being out for 12 hours. That's a lot for me.
That makes it my 18th most played song of all time on bandcamp
Ain't Got Heaven has over 1,000 plays on bandcamp, so, that's not getting toppled anytime soon. But still, 100 plays this quickly, when most of my audience was asleep for 8 of these 12 hours, is really, really cool
It *is* already in the number 10 slot for sales in releases! That's really phenomenal!
Funding from this single go toward the release of the full album, which is going to be about another $1,000 in mastering, and another few grand in physical media production (vinyl is expensive).
I'll do a pre-order, of course, when we're further down the line. But. We're off to a great start.

*And* the fediverse is the only place I'm sharing right now. I'll probably start promoting on other platforms shortly, though, focusing on the upcoming streaming platforms as that's usually a bit more successful on certain other socials.
