In his final semester of college, John ventured far from home, attending the Contemporary Music Center in Brentwood, TN. Tasked to write a new song every other week, he reflected on his tumultuous long-distance relationship in real-time. When the situation escalated to an intense break-up, John found the only way to process his pain was to write through it.
Collaborating with friend and producer, Benjamin Mariano, he crafted a collection of songs that chronicle the traumatic relationship from beginning to end, and onward to recovery. The full-length album, "I'll Be Fine" was released via Despicable Records on April 3rd, 2020.
Unable to tour due to the COVID-19 pandemic, John spent the year interacting with listeners via live stream performances, as well as an interactive album experience that peeled back the curtain on the creation of his music.
