THE LONG AND THE SHORT OF IT
THE DEBUT ALBUM
OUT NOW 💿 🔗 ⬇️

POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

My NEW ALBUM ‘The Long and The Short Of It’ is OUT NOW. Link in bio 🔗 💿

A musical journey that started almost 10 years ago has finally culminated in the finished record you see before you. From a ‘Pool House’ redux (originally written 2018) to tracks like ‘Famous’ and ‘For Free’ that were written only last year, this record is a journey through different eras of my writing. ‘The Long and The Short Of It’ is a pastiche of all the music and artists I look up to so much, including my amazing friends who helped me make this record come to life.

If you like some good old fashioned garage rock influenced alternative, you’ll love ‘Julia’ and the title track. If you like something more psychedelic/electronic I recommend ‘Mandala’ and ‘For Free’. If you like to put on nice headphones and go on sonic journeys, I recommend the back 3 tracks, but especially the album closer, ‘Aphrodite’ (my personal favorite). I think there’s a song on this record for everyone, and I can’t wait to hear what your favorite track is.

There’s a big thank you video coming soon, but to these people, you can begin to take your bows now. Thank you so much for all of your incredible talent and support.

From “Dutch” to “Famous” to the upcoming album, none of the art that you see when you listen would be possible without the stylings of @spencer.underwood and it would be a shame for the world to not see some of the other pieces and versions that didn’t make the final cut.
If I could have them all up there, I would. These are all so sick. Thank you so much my friend. You absolutely killed these collages.
Swipe to the end to see the art that will be used for the new album. “The Long and The Short Of It” comes out everywhere October 9th, and you can pre-save now from the link in my bio. by @tommydator

FAMOUS • NEW SINGLE OUT NOW • LINK IN BIO

This is the single that was always going to be a single. From the moment Jake Kremer and I started cooking this in the studio, we knew it had potential. I wanted to make a catchy little dark pop song, and out of the oven came Famous. It feels good to be loved, and Famous is all about the ego that can come with that. You can listen now on all major streaming services - link in bio.

Thank you once again to these amazing people who made this song happen:

Producer (Guitar, Bass, Additional Synths) - @jakek2
Drums - @eddie.haim
Mastering - @danmillice
Art - @spencer.underwood

My new single “Love To Be Had” is out now. Link in bio. Also, an accompanying visualizer is live now on YouTube…no long wait for a video this time.

My last two singles were more on the upbeat side, and this is more of a return to my old sad boy form. If you’re looking for a melancholic beginning of summer jam, you’ve come to the right place. This is a song about self-confidence standing in the way of forming a genuine connection with someone - I hope you can’t relate.

If you wanna get in your feels, or just want a track to listen to with the windows down on a summer night, you can listen to this track on all major streaming services.

Thank you to everyone who made this release possible:

Producer (Guitars, Bass, Synths) - @jakek2
Drums - @eddie.haim
Mastering - @danmillice
Single Art - @sylv.fae @iron.dollhouse by @tommydator

DUTCH IS OUT NOW ON ALL PLATFORMS • LINK IN BIO

I’ve been really excited for you guys to hear this one. Sometimes a great song just falls into your lap, and when I landed in San Francisco in 2024 for a quick trip, Jake Kremer had the rough instrumental for what would become “Dutch” all cooked up and ready for me. I came into the studio, and in an hour or 2, “Dutch” was born. A song about pushing through self-doubt, writer’s block, and learning to commit to a good idea, it’s a song that chronicles its own creation. I think it’s pretty cool, and I hope you enjoy the song.

I’m so thankful to all the amazing people who made it come to fruition:

Producer, Composer - @jakek2
Drums - @eddie.haim
Mastering - @danmillice
Art - @spencer.underwood by @tommydator
