“Pieces is basically a letter to those I love.
I’ve been back and forth in my head feeling like i’m falling into pieces,
with not much control of my life lately.
I wrote it in the thought of a suicide note, without the suicide.
I wanted to detail how I feel, and how I think others feel presently in my life.”
“Video wise, I figured my girlfriend, Kaylie, was the perfect person to film with.
She sees my highs and lows daily.”
“Location wise, I wanted to use places that actually meant something to me.
State college being my present area that I’m near,
I wanted to show the fun and happy side of life presently.
Then, The Millheim Hotel is a place that I frequently visit, and in
the town I grew up in as a child.”
“Lastly, Renovo was the perfect town for the dark scenes,
because I spent my older years growing up there back in high school.
I really had a lot of crazy traumatic things happen there,
that it felt almost needed to film the darker scenes there.“
“All in all, they all mean something to me deeply.
I don’t want “Pieces” to be viewed as me being suicidal,
but rather something to watch and listen to when I’m distant
trying to figure out life.”
