| camp sohi.

i started sohisounds. in 2019 as a small boutique "label" to release my own music through. at the time i was writing, producing and releasing pretty much all on my own with the occasional help of a few friends. i had this really almost borderline unhealthy obsession with doing this music thing alone. i was under the impression that if i wasn't involved in every aspect of the music, it would be inauthentic.

this mentality persisted until one day, after showing my music to a trusted friend of mine who was much further along in his career, he advised me to collaborate. empowered with this, i began a journey to find other people to work with. 

then life hit. 

i found myself in los angeles, where i wanted to be, but heartbroken, hurt and not thinking straight. what was supposed to be a move turned into an extended vacation full of partying and spending money i didn't have (i promise i'm going somewhere with this)

this all led me back home to dallas. i returned home with my tail between my legs, ashamed of the time and opportunities i felt i had squandered. i got a job at a bar in hopes to save money and get back to los angeles.
God had other plans. 

in a few months, i met king, a few months later, ehis, through him i met leo and maxwell and fast forward two years we rented a house in laguna beach california to record an album. together. 

from heartbreak and isolation, to community and shared creativity in the same place i threw it all away. 

redemption. 

my mom always tells me "His Grace will make you" 
camp sohi is more than an album to me, it's a memorial. it's a reminder that no matter how far i stray, God's got me. only He can write a story as profound as this. 

so yeah, listen to it if you want, or not. all i know is, i'm held by Grace. 

sohi till i die.

| the fire is gone

i've been silently releasing a single a month since april.

this has been been for a couple reasons:
1. i've felt the need to "make room" as some of these songs have been collecting proverbial dust in my dropbox. 

2. i often struggle to find a way to authentically show up in these online spaces in a way that isn't pandering to an algorithm but somehow meets you, the human, and others who share a similar love for music and art right where you are. idk. maybe i'm overthinking it. 

however, this song (and the others i've released such far, posts pending 😅) is really special to me and it'd be a shame for me not to share it with you.

this song is the first song king (@whatsleftafterthis) and i finished when we first started working together over two years ago now. i love this man so much, meeting him was divinely ordained. this track would lay the relational and professional groundwork that would later lead to my EP "RESCUE" which, in my opinion, is some of my best work to date.

so many others helped make this track come alive as well.

@twchanda thank you for handling the drums, my achilles heel. 

@mxwellb maxxieeeee on the mixxxx ur a legend.

The Fire Is Gone is yours 💛
