His forthcoming EP, RomCom is the unofficial prequel to his band’s 2021 FACTOR Funded release, Relationship Status, which features his solo projects debut single “Focus”. The project plots out a relationship arc and will be followed by a short film mini series that allows the audience to witness the moments behind four of the six tracks.
