Brick By Brick
Hi,
I'm Tina. Your friendly neighborhood daydreamer.
I write songs the way some people keep diaries. I've slowly started to realize that my songs are way ahead of my conscious mind.
Sometimes I don’t even realize how much something has stayed with me until I’m writing about it. Other times, I’m just trying to put a feeling into words, tie it all together with a few chords, and hope somebody else hears it and thinks, “Oh hey... that's me too.”
A lot of my songs circle around love and heartache. Wanting more but being scared to go after it. Missing people. Longing. Learning to be yourself when you’ve gotten a little too used to the world telling you who you should be. But where's the fun in that, right?
Those things have a way of showing up in everyday life, and that’s usually where a song starts for me.
Brick By Brick is the album I’ve wanted to make for a long time. I wasn’t ready to be this vulnerable even just a few years ago, but... I’m getting there (guess I'm a late bloomer). There’s some heartache in it, love, hope, and a lot of realizations about this crazy beautiful life that I’m still making sense of as I go.
I want these songs to feel like getting to know someone and realizing you have more in common than you thought. So I’m letting you into a little more of my world and maybe... just maybe... you’ll hear a bit of yours in it too.
Love,
Tina
