Musician going insane recording
Hey guys,
It's been a long and desperate week preparing to return to the studio!
Here I'm working on new song "Fight for You" and going through all the range of emotions one experiences when trying to get something made -
From doubting yourself, to thinking everything you're doing is terrible, to confronting demons, to moments of emotional breakthrough, to feeling everything is worth it, to wider ruminations.
My goal with this album is to be as transparent as possible about the process and I'm really enjoying welcoming slowly new people into this little journey.
Honestly: I'm in a dogfight for my musical life.
I've known every up and every down.
And sometimes you just have to bit down on the gum shield and go into the next round.
When I look at this video, it strange to see myself frozen in the moment I was in.
That's the strange and surreal journey of YouTube I guess, to be as you are and see if that might mean something to some others.
Even though things are slow, what really matters to me are the comments you all drop after each video - whether to encourage or reflect or feedback.
I just want to say, from my heart - thank you guys!
Okay, have a nice evening - I'll update you after the recording session proper ends!
Big up, Jim
