about

"wishing well" is about the fear of lovelessness and being alone. it's about the fear that no one has any interest in me- be that romantically, sexually, platonically- even if it may appear otherwise on the surface.

it is also the first single off of my next album, "specters"- a concept album about my fears, some big and some small. nostraightanswer.bandcamp.com/album/specters
