It’s really a journey that I wanted to take people on. I wanted people to feel the way that I used to feel when I listened to music as a kid, [how it] just deeply inspired and changed me and educated me. I would love for the younger generation to get that same feeling that I used to get back in the day.”
Telos is scheduled to launch on August thirtieth and followers can pre-save the album right here.
