Build Me This

Build Me This came right around the time that “The Sun Is Always Brighter” was having her hay-day. I was writing ferociously for the next record and was being overwhelmed with the content that was coming to mind. I decided to take on a challenge, albeit self-imposed, to write 50 songs in 50 days which, in turn, would give me enough songs for the next record. After I had finished all 50 and some others that were written before the self placed challenge I stepped back from what songs I had written and noticed a common thread throughout them all. “Build Me This” was the beginning of my searching for SOMETHING. Call it an eye in the sky, call it God, call it existence, but it was a search nonetheless. With the songs in my head, floating freely, I headed back to the ever-sunny city of Los Angeles. Along side my producing manager, Shannon Edgar, I entered Sunset Sound Studios with a team of mean and gritty musicians that would help me form what would eventually become “Build Me This”.
