The Altered Records

The first song I wrote for The Altered Records was 'Bedouin' — about misinformation, fear, and false narrative. As other songs developed, I found myself less interested in misinformation imposed from outside, and more in the private version of it — the stories people construct around grief, loneliness, lost time, and the fear of being forgotten. A father imagining a place beyond this life where he can still meet his children. Someone tending an imagined memory of a loved one because the real one is too hard to hold. The performance of a life on social media, and the person on the outside looking in, feeling the loss of it.
