Given the fact of how quickly the album, the culminated Music for people who believe in love Came together, the fans may be wondering why it was more than a year ago that Joe “sits” on the project that he originally announced would decrease in October.

“I was excited to get it out for a while. I think I called my manager last year. I said, 'I'm sorry to wait.' ”

He was “not convinced”, but now he is glad that he was waiting, especially since his recent single “Heart by Heart”, he “would not have had, would not have had [on the album] If I haven't captured it. So I'm glad I waited. ”

The same applies to a few other songs on the 14-track album, as he led around 70% of the project from the writing camp last March, but “there were some fine votes”.

“There were some characteristics that I could reach. There are seven or eight features on the album, which is somehow wild.”

Although he is happy that he has been waiting to drop it, he has retained the same wish to publish the project for the past year. “I'm just eager,” he says. “It is very personal for me and I am curious that I can finally share it … after I have held it for a year.”

The album is musically “a bit everywhere in the card genre,” he says. “And that was a kind of purpose.”

“I drove from La to Houston to a road trip last year and drove a motorhome and drove. I listened to everything from Country Western that I listened to alternative rock things that I like to listen to when I moved to New York.

During the recording process, he had “several rooms in motion”, with Alexander 23 being “more synth-based and optimistic and guitar-driven” in a room, and then he did things that were 12-string guitars and country in a different room.

“I had these two different noises, which I still felt well together. We didn't play the music to each other, so I went to space and write.”
