Today is a day I’ll remember for a long time, my very first original single, Gossip, is out in the world.
I still can’t quite believe I get to write that sentence.
This song started quietly, the way the most honest things often do. I was driving, half-lost in thought, when the melody and the first two lines suddenly arrived, uninvited, insistent, almost whispering. They stayed with me all day. It felt like the song wanted to be written, long before I understood what it was trying to say.
Later, when I finally sat with my guitar and followed that thread, Gossip revealed itself as a reflection on the stories we tell, especially the ones told about us, instead of by us.
The quiet judgement. The assumptions. The sting that sits under the surface. And the strength it takes to rise above it with softness instead of armour.
Recording this song in my little music shed made the process feel even more intimate. It was just me, my guitar, and the truth of what I had held for a long time. Hearing it now, shaped and polished yet still raw in all the right ways, feels like releasing a small piece of my heart and trusting it will find the right ears.
I’m deeply grateful to everyone who has encouraged me, believed in me, and held space for my songwriting journey. This moment belongs to all of us.
💚 You can listen to Gossip now on Spotify, Apple Music, and all streaming platforms.
(If you’re coming from my live gigs, yes, the QR code on my mic stand takes you right to it!)
Thank you for letting me share not just music, but meaning.
Here’s to the beginning —
