Thank you to Kill Rock Stars for putting this record out, and for being so supportive of me and my vision since signing me in 2020.
Big thanks also to my team: Gino Mari, Stephan Hawkes, Redeye, The Planetary Group, Terrorbird Media, Girlie Action, Silver PR, Painfully Optimistic — none of this record’s success would have happened without all of you working so hard to bring the vision to life. And thank you to Daniel Napoli and Granger Loosely for creating such a rad video for Here’s To Us.
I love y’all.
If you are a voting member of the Recording Academy, we would love your support!
This is the 5th Anniversary of the first time my documentary Lead With Love was screened publicly, after I had carried around the truth of this story (as well as all of the hot media takes, death threats, and letters of support, from folks who weren’t there) privately for half a decade.
I remember, at the time, feeling like I needed to release this film in order to survive. All the projections, all the misinformation, all the hate, and all the love — it just needed to be informed.
Thank you to Revry for believing in this movie enough to stream it out to over 250 million homes in the years since. And thank you to the people from this film who ultimately took down the hateful Mars Hill Church and ideologies from the inside. It’s been gone for many years now and the world is entirely better for it.
