Robin West

As and I were working on Red Rabbit, we tried to walk a fine line between nostalgia and staying present. I often say that the song is about growing up. That’s true. But more than getting older, it’s about the losses - and the moments of holding on in between, where you hold tighter because you know you’re never going to feel quite that same way ever again. There’s a very real bittersweetness to that. So we tried to translate that feeling into the final tune you hear now (wherever you get your music - go listen).

The Polaroids are of my elementary/middle school and the park near my preschool (which looks exactly the same and is still full of splinters). More even than birthdays, the beginning of the school year brought the passage of time into focus. And looking back, much of who I am now was already there. I feel both grateful and sad for that.

Meet - he played drums for Lake Shore Drive, and he’s been playing with me on my live shows for the last couple of years. Super lucky to have such a talented dude in my corner. You can also catch him with and tons of others.
