I feel like there’s a lot of people that grew up the way I grew up. That’ve also maybe left their hometown and have taken a little piece of that small town with them, which is really my story as well. My debut solo album is all about that journey from a kid to who I am now. pic.twitter.com/em3dBoSTck

“So, with the album, the track listing, the sequence, I really just wanted the fans to go on a journey from track one to track 18. I didn’t want there to be any songs that you wanted to skip over. I wanted each song to bring out a specific emotion, and I wanted it to be a journey, like I said. I want it to be fun, first and foremost. I wanted the fans to get to know me on a personal level and I wanted them to feel something, to feel anything, whether it be make you laugh, making you cry, making you nostalgic or thinking about the past or whatever the case may be.
