"A few days later when I was feeling anxious and upset, I sat in my bed and sang mostly held notes in the key of B flat major for 7 minutes as a voice memo on my phone and texted it to Travis. He sent back an edited version, layering my recording with his - keyboard played in a bathroom at night while his family was sleeping. These are safe ways of making: This project that invites me to open my mouth and sing, holding me safely in a nook of care, a collaboration that holds us both in the ways we need to be held."
