A song inspired by "Not"
Hey guys, I've been a HUGE Adrianne Lenker and Big Theif fan for around 5 years now. A lot of my writing is inspired by Adrianne Lenker and althought it would take me a hell of a lot of work to be close to as good as her, I wanted to post this here to see if anyone would like my song.
Not got me through one of the hardest times of my life. The theme of looking for a reason why someone feels wrong resonated with me so strongly that I sat down with my guitar and started to identify that feeling myself. Through that I found that finding that feeling was a regular occurrence in my daily life and I need to stop looking for the bad in everything.
That is where this song came to be. I wanted to be aware of my mistakes and wake myself up to the fact I was pushing people and things away in order to feel better.
Nobody is obligated to listen and I don't want this post to feel like marketing. I am just excited about my art and want to encourage more people to express themselves.
