It is hard to put into words just how gratifying it feels to type this: my new album, Rebellis Intus, is officially finished.
Every stage of bringing this record to life has been an absolute blast. From the initial spark of late-night, hotel room songwriting sessions to tracking guitars, dialing in tones, and diving deep into new DAW production techniques, the creative process pushed me in ways I never anticipated. Handling the tracking, mixing, and mastering from start to finish allowed me to shape the sonic landscape exactly how I envisioned it—raw, powerful, warm, and honest.
The track listing:
- Icarus Blind
- Never Tried
- Fade From You
- The Scream Within
- Hide
- The Words She Said
- Glow Like This
- Drive Or Fly
- Wild Card
- Regalo Chaqueta de Cuero
Incredible Guest Vocalists
While this record carries my personal, musical DNA from top to bottom, I wanted distinct vocal voices to bring specific songs to life. I could not be more thrilled or honored by the three powerhouse vocalists who lent their extraordinary talents to the album:
- Tracey Tucker – My longtime friend and former partner from our acoustic duo days in Gringo Fife (track 3, “Fade From You”).
- Jenni Mote – The phenomenal frontwoman of The M-80s (track 5, “Hide”).
- Ronya Somerset – My former lead singer from Traumatide (track 7, “Glow Like This”).
Each of them brought an unmistakable energy and emotion to their tracks, elevating the music beyond anything I could have hoped for. I can’t wait for you to hear what we created together.
The Road to Release
With the audio finalized and locked down, the work shifts from the studio console to rollout and release. I’m currently setting up worldwide digital distribution, mapping out video storyboards, and editing short-form teasers to give everyone a first look and listen at the music before release day.
Keep an eye on my social channels and right here on the site over the coming weeks—I’ll be dropping exclusive teasers, behind-the-scenes glimpses, and the premiere of the lead single, “The Scream Within.”
Looking Ahead: More Music on the Horizon
The creative momentum from this project took on a life of its own. Over the past year, I ended up writing over 30 original songs. Because of that creative surge, there is already more than enough material queued up to start cutting a second album next year—complete with even more exciting guest vocalists joining the fold.
Thank you to everyone who has supported my music, followed along with the studio updates, and cheered on this project from day one. Rebellis Intus is on its way. Turn it up loud.
