It’s been more than a hot second since I’ve come on here to post anything, let alone a music thing. Back in 2010 – NEARLY A DECADE AGO FOR ANYONE KEEPING TRACK – I released a song every single week of the year right here on Tumblr. That’s 52 songs in one dang year written and recorded. I was kind of spent after that and didn’t do much with music in 2011. I came up with the Collapsi name though that year and got a little band together in 2012 for a handful of shows, including a couple of great SXSW spots. Then I largely went quiet for six years. I kept rehearsing and writing, but music became very private to me during that time. I released my #metoo-inspired “Burn Like A Mother” last year and it was the first “official” single I’d released in nearly a decade. This track, “Wither Away,” is my second as Collapsi. I premiered it on Vortex Music Magazine. I hope you’ll take a second to listen to it. If distortion/grunge/garagerock are things you dig, you might dig this.
