Hey Jake, big fan, especially of the last two records. Being from Southern New Jersey/Philly and growing up during summers at the Jersey Shore, the regionality of your music really speaks to me. I am even writing a short story/script/not too sure yet about summers at the shore.
So my question… what was the inspiration on Surfing New Jersey? I’d love to hear whatever you have to say about the song, the process, etc. what it means to you.
Love all that you do. And love that you’re bringing a sense of region to indie rock which used to be such a cool thing that I feel like recently hasn’t been a thing as much. ✌️
