This year’s been hectic in many ways ngl.
Busking was tough and at times I felt disconnected from the thing that built me.
I travelled far on cruise ships, played music around the world, but that also meant time away from the people I love 🌍✈️
Somewhere in the middle of all that, I finally went all-in on the metal band. The music that got me started in the first place. Finding Rafa, Matt, Bruno and Gary felt like the missing pieces clicking into place 🤘🔥
I wouldn’t call this year losses.
More like ingredients. A recipe that’s made me more whole than I was before.
I’m forever finding myself through music, through relationships, and through love ❤️
Rebranding, reinventing, stepping into my 30s with clearer eyes, and finally getting my Irish driving licence felt like quiet wins 🚗✨
Big love to the WaveSquad and the streaming team online for always having my back, and to the patrons who kept me going when things got heavy. I see you, and I appreciate you deeply 🙏
Grateful, motivated, and ready for whatever next year holds.
Peace and love, always,
JK ❤️
