What an intense and compelling listening experience you've delivered with your recent single, "In The End." Where did you find the inspiration to create such a powerful and emotional piece like this?

One of my favorite things to do is write songs based on books and occasionally TV shows. “In The End” is based on the show The Witcher, which chronicles a really complicated relationship between two of the main characters. I was instantly interested in the idea of writing something around the idea of a love that spans time and distance, especially one that is so intense that it can be destructive.

How did you create the instrumental atmosphere to enhance and amplify the heavy lyrical theme within "In The End?" Why did you choose to create this cinematic instrumental tone?

The production side of creating a song to me is almost as enjoyable and creatively challenging as the writing process. I’ve been working with the same producer, Daniel Dennis, for years now, and we are usually on the same page when it comes to production. For “In The End” I knew I wanted big, dramatic strings, so we brought in Chuck Callahan on violin and Austin Hoke on cello. I’ve worked with them before on several tracks, and they have a knack for really nailing cinematic string parts. I definitely think the strings are what really make the track match the lyrics.

Was it difficult to write about such intimate, personal, and emotional themes like unhealthy love for "In The End?" What was your solo songwriting process like?

It’s not quite as difficult or emotionally draining to write songs like this where I am putting myself in a character’s headspace as when I am writing something that comes from a strictly personal place. I just try to focus on channeling the character’s voice into the lyrics. Usually, my writing process starts by me coming up with a little lyric and melody (for this one it was “I can tell that we’re going to destroy one another”) and building the song from there. “In The End” was a little challenging with the rhyming scheme and rhythm I chose, but I just kept at it until it came together.

How do songs like "In The End" represent you and your brand? Do you usually lean towards such cinematic and orchestral instrumental landscapes, similar to "In The End?"

I would definitely say cinematic music is a huge part of my brand. I love making tracks that feel like they would fit right into an epic movie. But I also really enjoy playing around with writing songs that are simpler and more vulnerable. I think it’s important to be a well-rounded songwriter and artist. But if I could only make one type of song for the rest of my life, it would definitely be cinematic.

What's next for you?

I release a new song every month, so I’m always putting out new music! As far as my next song that will be based on something specific, I have some ideas for a song inspired by Loki from the Marvel Universe, so I’m very excited to dig into that.
