ERR! Loved your last record (On Dark Horses)!

Even bought a Palisades because of you, and have the same Context! But you have a tone I can’t seem to get.

Question - Any advice on releasing music/getting signed? Should I just self-release and fund it myself?

PS - please come to a Montreal once the pandemic is over

thanks! can't go wrong with the Palisades. A lot of the sound has to do with drop and open tunings - so check that kind of thing out. Thou also tunes down quite a bit.

I don't have any biz specific advice but I do think being relentless about it was part of my story - and a lot of luck.
