and just like that, my 13th studio album - King Of (Un)Simple - hits the world! 🥳 these songs were written during lockdown and recorded over the last year and a half in woodstock, atlanta, nashville, san francisco and los angeles… with 4 different groups of DIZZYINGLY TALENTED humans. i was determined to only put this album out when the songs felt right… it was DEFINITELY a process. some of them were recorded 2 or 3 different times with 2 or 3 different sets of people… and a handful were shelve

today is the 10th anniversary of my 8th studio album, show me your fangs. i’m having an oddly emotional reaction remembering life back when i made this record... that cliche “youth is lost on the young” is too fuckin real. i miss the naive optimism. and how the trajectory of everything felt clear. i mean, there was still a music business then, and we’d promote albums and send songs to radio (!) it feels antiquated now... like churning butter or building a barn with the towns folk. i love so many
