Music As A Means of Comfort–“Shakes” and “Close My Eyes” by Luke Hemmings
Sometimes, life has a way of making the things that you love seem a little more dull than usual. I’ve got to be honest and say that 2024 did not welcome me with open arms. On the contrary, it’s felt more like I’ve been one step behind everyone else, struggling not only to keep pace,…
