So glad you’re in such a flow.. and honestly think a song a month is a stroke of genius! Have you noticed how streaming platforms stopped dropping entire seasons of tv in one go? I know it’s a different format, but same result, you’re giving us all a chance to listen, share, want more and get it stuck on our heads and then releasing new music just in time to make sure we’re still with you! I love a good full album, but love that this way I get to experience and appreciate each song on its own and then I imagine will have a much deeper experience with the whole album in 10 months time!
That's really great feedback, and I really appreciate to have that from the perspective of the listener Nick! That's what I'm hoping - that that songs can build some history, memory and feelings over time, and that the album can actually mean something - I think that's what it meant for us to grow up with albums - to have them as an extension of a time period. I hope you've had some good days brother - wishing you a great week ahead pal
Often, on Saturday mornings, when l turn my phone on, the first thing l see is your newsletter Jamie. And often, not always (as l sometimes check my messages first then find l don’t get to read it until later-sometimes much later) it is the first thing l do for the weekend; to read your latest musing about life, art, love, our place in the world, making sense of it all, learning to be in it with vigour and open hearts & minds. ✨ I am not an artist but your reflections, struggles, insights and questions always touch me and spark in me a resolution to face whatever comes next with curiosity, positivity and resilience. 💪 Thank you for always laying yourself bare, as you have done with even greater force this week, and for continuing to inspire me and others so consistently.🙏 A truly wonderful start to my weekend!💯😍
