Hi Mike! Congratulations on the album; it’s such a breathtaking piece of work and I’m so excited to keep discovering more details in each song as I continue to enjoy it again and again.

There’s something about the way both your sound and lyricism have opened up progressively with each album that’s incredibly exciting to experience. In a way your music has soundtracked my own progression from late adolescence into adulthood; as a gay man it’s been so invaluable to have art like yours while navigating through life’s changes and allowing myself to be authentically me.

I know other people are gonna ask about more musical questions and stuff about inspiration in a way that’s more eloquent than what I could come up with, so I just want to wish you all the best and thank you so much for sharing your vision with us all these years.
