Malibu Nights

Polished synth-pop meets raw heartbreak. Shimmering 80s textures and breathy vocals designed for late-night drives and processing the end of a relationship.

The ultimate 'driving alone at 2 AM' album for when you're going through it.

A polished, neon-hued exploration of heartbreak that feels both deeply private and cinematically vast.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The transition from the driving synth-pop of the opening tracks into the stark, piano-led vulnerability of the title track

The rhythmic, desperate repetition of the hook in I Don't Wanna Love You Anymore that feels like a mantra

The way the production strips back to almost nothing during the bridge of Thru These Tears, highlighting the vocal fragility
