Stop The Car

This song came to me randomly in late 2023 about a past relationship I had when I was 16. He would hide secrets, pressure me, and lie to me a lot. It instilled so much anxiety in me and caused me to overthink everything. It’s taken me years to break down these things, but I think the experience ultimately showed me that we should never stay with someone who would directly or indirectly put us in harm’s way, whether that be physically, mentally, or emotionally. This song is an anthem of walking away from something that isn't good for you anymore.

Chasing Lights

'Chasing Lights' is a dance-pop track I created for the game Star Stable Online, an online horse-game based on mystery, adventure, and friendship. Since I was little, horses have been a major part of my life. I would often be labeled as the "horse girl" which for a long time I hated. But as the years went on, I came to realize that I can't be embarrassed of loving something so much. Whenever I felt alone, horses were one of my comforting places. And when I couldn't access them in real life, I had Star Stable.

When I got the news that they were scouting for music to be added to the game, I knew I had to take a chance and submit something. This song came together in a few days, after re-working an earlier version that I made in early January. It is fully inspired by a disco area in the game in which it plays, and is very different from anything I've ever made, but I truly love it. It's an encapsulation of the joy I've always felt playing this game and pays homage to my younger self. 💖

Father's Day

Father's Day is my first song to ever be released (I still pinch myself everyday because of that).
I wrote it on a day that has always been difficult for me: Father's Day, in 2022. When I scrolled through everyone's posts about their amazing fathers, I was happy to see what everyone was sharing, but a part of me was also destroyed and held resentment because I never experienced the love of a father for my own. This song helps me come to terms with what I've felt on every Father's Day since I was little, and for that it brings me a little more peace.
