about

"Show You" is the first single off of my upcoming debut EP After You. It was written during the second semester of my masters studies while I was out of town playing for an opera production. Like many songs, it was born from heartbreak. I had just gone through a rough breakup and the song was an attempt to process some of the emotions and events surrounding the breakup. It was an emotionally charged time and out of it came an emotionally charged song.

As a working professional musician, there are certain obstacles that must be navigated in any relationship. Primarily, living part of your life on the road can make it difficult to open up to someone. When you're often so far away, it can take a certain amount of creativity to communicate and share yourself with people you care about. That's what this song is about! It's about opening up and trying to find ways to be vulnerable and bare your soul to someone, regardless of distance.

This is the first of my original music that I have ever shared publicly. Whether it's your cup of tea or not, I just want to thank you so much for taking the time to give it a shot and for reading this! This has been a dream of mine for so long. Any support means the absolute world to me!

lyrics

I’ll show you my words
Scrawled on the back of a postcard
Sent from Phoenix Arizona
In the middle of December

I’ll show you my face
Burned onto a polaroid
Taken in some bar
Whose name I won’t remember

I’ll show you everything
Everything that makes me me
I’ll show you all of me

I’ll show you my voice
Over a midnight phone call
From the back of a cab
On some unnamed highway

I’ll show you my heart
Poured out in a song
Written in the bunk of a bus
On my way back home to you (x3)

I’ll show you everything(x4)

I’ll shown you everything
Everything that makes me me
I’ll show you everything
Everything that makes me me
