Star Sign

A quiet, tape-saturated collection of fragile Americana. Stripped of artifice, these ten tracks lean into hushed vocals and patient, dusty acoustic arrangements.

It's like sitting in a dark room with a guitar and a glass of whiskey while the world sleeps.

A quiet, weathered resilience that finds beauty in the stillness of late-night isolation.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The fragile crack in the vocal delivery during the title track's climax
The way the harmonica pierces through the hushed acoustic strumming on track four
The five-minute slow burn of Darkness where the piano feels like it's echoing in an empty hall
