Written, Produced, Mixed and Mastered fully from scratch by me (all instruments and vocals) Dopesick is a genre-bending project that blends grunge, shoegaze, post hardcore, and Midwest emo into a captivating sonic experience. Inspired by influential bands such as Deftones, Nirvana, My Bloody Valentine, Title Fight, Citizen and more. I have crafted a distinctive sound that combines the raw intensity of grunge, the ethereal textures of shoegaze, the emotive power of post hardcore, and the introspective lyricism of Midwest emo. The result is a fresh and dynamic fusion that demands attention and resonates deeply with listeners. What sets Dopesick apart is not only the genre-spanning approach, but also the sheer breadth of my involvement in the creative process. Based in Jacksonville, Florida, I am not only a solo artist but also the owner of a recording studio. This studio, equipped to handle recording, production, mixing, mastering, and even music videos, allows me to bring my artistic vision to life with unparalleled control and artistic integrity. Moreover, Dopesick draws profound inspiration from my personal battles with addiction, which heavily influence both my lyrics and sound. As a person in recovery with over 2 years sober, I channel the raw emotions, struggles, and triumphs of that journey into every aspect of my music. The vulnerability and authenticity woven throughout my lyrics create a deep connection with listeners who have faced similar challenges. The sonic landscape of Dopesick reflects the turbulence and catharsis experienced during those dark times, resulting in a truly immersive and emotionally charged musical experience. By embracing my past struggles, Dopesick embodies resilience, hope, and the transformative power of music. more
