Notes on Modern Love
As a confused but bright-eyed fifth grader, I was carefree and wild, mostly concerned with three things: attaching neon feathers to my hair, moving my body to the newest pop hits, and contemplating which ecosystem to unearth in my backyard. Then my mom told me she was in love with another woman. We had never spoken about her dating life or sexuality following the turbulent years with my father, but they were never married nor lived together, so separation was almost unnoticeable from the start. My mom told me, “I am in love with this person, and she just happens to be a woman.” I must have known the truth somewhere deep inside, because I remember that my cheerful knee-jerk response was, “I knew it.” As a 10-year-old, I didn’t feel the need to question her. I trusted my mom’s decision in choosing whom to love. To me, it didn’t matter, but to the world, it seemed to matter a whole lot. And since that day, my heart has yearned for a world where love is freely chosen and bestowed.
South of France - Confidence, credibility, intention
“In this interview, we talk to Cormack not only about his latest release but also about his knowledge of commercial licensing, as he's been a songwriter for other musicians for many years, where he hopes to shed light on how important it is to know your worth in the industry. Since starting South of France in 2012, the band has changed along the way and formed many shapes. Now, almost 9 years later, the growth and constant evolution have made him and his band what they are today.”
