It’s this really undeniable, feel-good sound where it has this bluesy, maybe little country, very pop feeling.
It kind of feels like the icing on the cake or the cherry on top. “Lemonade” has this complete feeling to it.
It allows you to borrow new tools that you didn’t have yourself. It’s an endless learning experience and I think that working with new people, with older people, younger people, with people that have different music backgrounds is really helpful. I think that’s where you can get complacent. You’re constantly learning, I think if you ever get to a point where you feel like you know everything. I think just as you get older you become wiser, you know more things. For me, the evolution has been the journey itself and sort of kind of not knowing what’s gonna happen and just keeping my nose to the grindstone and working hard, trying new things, and being OK with getting out of my comfort zone and that to me has been the biggest learning experience and the most rewarding part of this whole thing.Ĭomparing your new music to the first album, how has your sound grown? Moreover, how have you grown as a musician? I think it’s one of these things you go in with a plan or you think you’re gonna do one thing and then you end up taking a left and a right turn and then you do a number of other things that can be really cool. Any perceived idea of what you think it’s going to be is always changed. You really don’t actually know how it’s gonna go down. It’s not like anybody has the perfect plan or blueprint especially when you’re 16 or 17 entering the industry. I’ve had the opportunity to do many things through many mediums whether it’s acting or music. It’s been an amazing and fruitful career. Musically, I knew it was going to be a little more organic, wasn’t going to be as super-produced as some of my earlier stuff, but I knew it was going to be a little bit more of a tale of what it’s been like for me in the industry and what it’s like for me now as this new role of an engaged dude.īelieve it or not, it’s been 17 years since you dropped your debut album Beautiful Soul! Can you tell us about the journey you’ve been on since then? Sometimes you write a song that doesn’t quite meet the rubric I’m quite looking for and so I have to write it again and again until I can finally check off that box. What I like to do is make a check list or punch list of things that I wanna discuss for the project and then I try to write songs that check off all the boxes. Thematically it was supposed to be about a number of things: a love letter to my now soon-to-be wife and also a slice of where I am at in my own life. What was the creation process like for this record? What themes were most important to you to hit on lyrically and sonically? caught up with McCartney on Zoom to discuss the album, his beginnings, and upcoming tour.
