When developing a unique style, it can be difficult to tell if what you're creating is good.
This is because there isn't existing music to compare it to. So, you revert to a more generic style because that is more certainty-creating.

For the last couple of years I’ve simply had to ASSUME that I can become a great singer/songwriter. I believe in lifelong improvement and growth so why not? But still, this is a conceptual belief.

The album I'm finishing right now is the 7th in my career.
(It's the 3rd I'm finishing alongside this podcast.)
And so far, I don't doubt that my 2nd album (made in 2008) was the worst by far, in almost every way.
Even though, on the surface, it might seem that conditions were IDEAL for it to become my best...
