Too Hard was created by me and the incredibly talented Kyle Andrews, who had album of the year in 2024 in my opinion, hands down.
It’s been fun to get to collaborate with one of my favorite artists on this latest project, with Kyle working out of SPOONERDOME in Wisconsin and me working out of Burn Money Music here in Oregon. Can’t wait for you to hear more of what we’ve been up to.
More on The Pain And The Power of it all here very soon, but if you are able to pick up a copy of the fundraiser single in the meantime, I hope you will! 100% of proceeds from this Bandcamp Exclusive go to support fire recovery efforts at the studio where we made it, which burned down last week.
Fire is bad. Music is good.

We finished my new record, The Pain And The Power, on Tuesday night, and the studio I work out of here in Portland burned down on Wednesday, less than 24 hours later. I am feeling very grateful that Pretty Baby and I were not there when the fire happened and that no one else was hurt. Also feeling so lucky that we finished when we did and that my new music is not one of the many, MANY things that has been lost in the fire.
I made the Distracted EP at Burn Money Studios, as well as the Rock and Roll City single, and this new collection of songs I’ve been working on this year. This special place has been my musical home for a long time now and I love all of the people who have been affected by this devastating loss. It’s kind-of unimaginable, but I went over there today and saw it with my own eyes. It’s all gone.
My friends iLoveMakonnen, Yellow Trash Can, and so many others have dedicated countless hours to building that spot into the community hub it is today. This is not just a loss for the music scene. This is a loss for PDX.
I am sitting here with the hard drive we loaded up at the end of that session on Tuesday — perhaps the last record to ever come out of the studio before it was destroyed — and I need to do something to help, right now.
We have big plans for The Pain And The Power, all of which will still be happening…but ahead of any of that, I have decided to release the first track TODAY as a @Bandcamp exclusive and a 100% fundraiser for my Burn Money Studios family who will be out of work for the foreseeable future. The price is $5 but if you can pay more, please do. I will be giving all of the proceeds from this single toward supporting the rebuild.
Music is love.
Support your local crews and workers.
Thank you to Burn Money Music for everything you have done (and will still do) for Portland’s music community. I love you and am here for you, with you. Gonna take a lot more than a fire to take this magic out.

Thank you to the whole gang who helped us pull this off. You know who you are and what you did but you will never know how much this has meant to me.
More on all of this sometime, I’m sure. ❤️

I love that we are all absolutely covered in dog fur.
