Hi, everyone! It’s happening! Today I’m releasing the first album of my own songs which is called #forfriends.
It is a very exciting moment for me. I’ve dreamed about this release for many years and hete it is! All the songs were recorded in acoustics. I tried to get the sound as life/real as possible - as if you are sitting in nature, looking in a distance, contemplating the beauty and hearing your friends singing and everybody is having the moment and there is nothing except the beauty, sound and dream.
I’ve always wanted to write songs but no matter how I tried I couldn’t do it - I just couldn’t complete the musical concept. It seemed like all my efforts were raw and I had to let that go.
And then, last year, I had a breakthrough, I got it.
I ended up in a hospital after unsucsessfull descent from the mountain on a snowboard. After, I spent time at home with a cast on my entire leg. To entertain myself, I start playing the guitar again. All unnecessary worries just disappeared and I suddenly understood what I had to do to write a song. So today I am presenting you the acoustic EP of my songs entitled #forfriends! Enjoy!
Dear friends, please share.
