“This record is a little note I wrote from my home: the middle west of America. I wrote it after leaving Paris. Matter of fact, after leaving a lot of things behind. Many faces, many sunrises and sunsets, many miles on roads that all lead back here. It’s the story of a 27 year old fella looking for something - not quite sure what it is, but realizing that the act of searching is all that ever matters.

It’s the sound of being alone, yet surrounded by all. These chords, these lyrics, they reflect who I am in a way nothing else ever could. Sometimes I’m good at talking for hours on end (or so I’m told), and even that doesn’t come close.

Anyhow, I suppose that’s the best way I could describe the record. Thanks for listening. I truly appreciate your time.

Dearly,



R.”
