I knew my life had taken a turn when I found myself wanting to live in Justin Timberlake's "FutureSex/LoveSounds". The constant fog I was in since I left Oddway last June, and many months before that, had been lifted. Justin Timberlake got me out of my funk.
From 2002 to 2007 every minute of each day had revolved around Oddway. I had started to lose myself.
I am very proud and grateful for all of our accomplishments and the music we created, but I knew it was time for me to leave.
I had no intentions, no expectations...all I had was my voice. And with that I began writing the songs that would become "Proper Goodbye".
Creating this disc with producers Sean McLaughlin and Brad McCarthy has been some of the greatest and most rewarding times I've had. I feel each of the 5 songs on "Proper Goodbye" really captures that energy.
