A conversation with Jake Sanders about how 'I wanted you to know' came together, making space for collaboration, and the ego-challenging act of putting music into the world
I agree that placeholder lyrics are sometimes the best choice. Scrambled eggs!!! 😂 . As for social media and posting your music, I am disheartened by the algorithms. Or maybe people just are tired of my « vanity project? 🤷♀️😔
Ha, thanks Britta. That whole 'vanity project' label is so weird and misplaced – there's nothing more humbling or challenging to the ego than putting your own stuff out into the world!
I thank you for putting it that way!!! I’m in my 50’s now and making music and having people hear it is so important to me! I put out an album in 2020, my second in 10 years! I am getting ready to put more out there. What’s holding me back? Dunno. I keep making excuses!!
Great stuff, all. Glad that I found your Substack. I'm doing something similar but different with mine- take a look if you have a chance and I'll look forward to more of your collaborations and musings!
