Kristian Bush just made a big announcement to fans! Check out the letter he wrote to everyone, and posted on his website below!
On April 15, 2013 — one year ago — I launched a series called Music Mondays.
The first song I posted was “Call It Even,” written in 1995, when I was in my first band, Billy Pilgrim. I posted a blog about what inspired the lyrics, then added the hand-written page from my journal, and a copy of the song.
It felt like I opened the door to my studio and invited you all inside to watch me work. I think that day might also have been the first time a lot of you heard my voice, front and center, coming through your speakers.
It made me a little nervous — but it was also one of the most exciting things I’ve ever done.
I started Music Mondays because I have written close to 300 songs in the past two years, and even though only a handful of them will ever find their way onto an album, I believe every one of them deserves a voice. I started it because I am on a journey, one that has taken me to Nashville and Florida and Stockholm and London and California in search of new co-writers, friends, and teachers, and I want to share that journey with you.
I started it because songwriting is like breathing for me — I wake up and do it every day — and I can’t hold it inside.
One year later, I look back at the way all of you have embraced these songs, commented on the blog posts, tweeted me or posted in the forum about what they mean to you, and I am humbled. Thank you.
Now it is time to start something new.
I am excited — and a little nervous — to announce that beginning this week, I am officially putting the finishing touches on my debut solo album.
