I did the same.

They might. They actually contacted me because they heard the talent in those songs ive written. They were impressed with my writing abilities & that alone made them want to work with me pretty badly.

You should do a long exposure shot of that waterfall.

Tuesday I had to go for jury duty. I got into the courtroom & realized it was one of my friends on trial. Obviously, because of that, I couldn't serve on the case. His trial ended today & he was found not guilty! 🤟😎

I am a hard rock / heavy metal drummer. I've recently struggled to find decent musicians to work with, so I started writing my own lyrics & arrangements & using AI to help create the songs.

Had to run & grab some essentials. Im not feeling the greatest, but I wont let that slow down the creative process. I will be writing & arranging some more lyrics today. If all goes well, maybe I'll be able to release another new song sometime next week.

☆Jared Matthews☆ @jaredmatthews.bsky.social · 6d

Damn... I woke up feeling like complete shit this morning... 😔

☆Jared Matthews☆ @jaredmatthews.bsky.social · 7d

Yes, do it. They are 100% real.

☆Jared Matthews☆ @jaredmatthews.bsky.social · 7d

That was actually the first one that I wrote. 🤟😎

My favorites though are definitely Remember When & Last Goodbye though. Those two songs were from the heart & came from real experiences.
