It was October 20th, 2020 that both of our lives changed, Drew and I met on a website where we were looking for each other…both of us looking for another creative soul to complete us, I suppose would be a good way to describe it.
‘Will-O’-Wisp' was the first song that we ever collaborated on, a song whose lyrics I had written when I was in the deep throes of depression. I had the life I thought I'd always wanted, yet I felt completely numb, hollow, disconnected and detached from it. Like being in a dark hole that was swallowing a bit of my soul more and more each day, one that I couldn't escape from and one that wouldn't spit me out on it's own. Drew is the one who threw me the rope that I would climb, he was the one who grabbed my hand and lifted me out to safety. He's the one who gave my life meaning again, he let me create and gave me my voice back through my words and lyrical poetry.
I WILL forever be grateful and continue to feel like the luckiest person in the world because he chose me to take this musical journey with him.
We didn't know 6 years ago that today we would still be collaborating and making beautiful music but here we are! We've both grown and changed in our personal lives as well as our creative ones. Sleeps Under Beams has continued to evolve and change and I can't wait to see what our future holds together! Wishing my partner, the most wonderful person in the world, the greatest partner and my best friend, Drew, a Happy Anniversary!
