My song Isabella is about the kind of friend everyone has in New Yorkā¦the kind of friend whoās parents might be paying the rent. And if you ask me, thatās precisely the reason she canāt seem to get it together. At first it may not seem like the most flattering portrayal of a friendā¦but to be honest, itās not necessarily a friendās saintliness that I find most interesting, and I mean the song as a compliment.
A lot of people have been writing in recently asking about my new recordāwhich is great. But even more people have been writing in asking if I was thinking about getting a haircut any time soonāwhich is fine. So, just the other day as I was on my way to play Isabella for my writer/musician friend, it dawned on me that I might kill two birds with one stone, and hopefully get a little positive feedbackā¦and maybe a little trim.

All of the songs on my new record are about people. Individual, real people. Some are strangers Iāve met, but a lot are friends. The song āHere They Comeā is about a friend whoās constantly running from his problems. I love him to death but when the going gets tough, heāll always just cut and run. The song is about the specific moment when the lights are coming up in a movie theater where heās been hiding all day. I figured including personal details in song lyrics might be kind of touchy, and I didnāt know how people might actually react if they thought they might have recognized themselves in a particular line, so I met up with my writer/actor friend to play him a song and gauge his reaction. (FULL SONG OUT NOW).
