In early 2019, after several years as front man of The Mad Anthonys, I decided to take a break to focus back on acoustic songwriting. The following months would deliver what will be my first solo album “OnlyChildX”.
As we were wrapping up production in Spring 2020 the world changed. And like so many, we have been navigating our way through it. Starting today ,as production continues, you can hear fresh singles when they drop on all platforms.
“One Thing Left” is a reflection on how the arts have been a sanctuary for me — A defense against the darkness, and a connection to each other.
Growing up, my family always carried the same passion for literature, music, comedy, film and visual arts, stealing us from the worries of the day….if just for a minute…or an hour or two. This song is not only a big thanks to them for giving me that love, but also a way for me to send that same love back out to a world that really needs it right now. In that spirit we decided on a Thanksgiving release. This is a historic moment to reflect on the love around us. Our roots..our connections..the importance of escape, mental health and personal well being.
