WHAT HE SAID ABOUT THIS SONG:
AJ Smith: “I wrote this with my friend April Rose who has been touring and playing keys with the Alt. Rock band Kulick. It revolves around that stage in the relationship where things are heating up and you’re catching feelings, but neither person wants to define the relationship or admit they love the other person first as that vulnerability can be a bit frightening. On the production side, I sought to create a dynamic that highlights that uncertainty and fear of being in two different places by juxtaposing a more frantic violin part in the intro and choruses with the darker electric guitars and drums throughout. Overall, it’s a fun and sexy song about not being certain about how certain to be in that exciting relationship stage. I hope you enjoy! “
ABOUT THE ARTIST:
in the shadow of the Rocky Mountains, AJ Smith has taken a rather unconventional path for an Indie/Pop singer-songwriter.
After all, not many can claim to have served as a Young Associate Violinist to the National Symphony Orchestra while simultaneously serving as an Engineer and Infrared Systems Developer for the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory…in high school. But Smith’s dual passions for organic music and technology started early and with a reckless abandon that led him to run away from home at the age of 3 for the sole purpose of listening to piano lessons down the street. His parents finally realized that these escapades would only stop once Smith himself, still only 3-years-old at the time, was allowed to learn how to play the piano. And shortly after that, despite having limited music knowledge, Smith was stealing both of his parents’ tape players, figuring out how to effectively multitrack & record early compositions (while haphazardly recording over some of his parents’ favorite cassette tapes in the process).
The trend continued and, never shy about seizing opportunities or facing challenges, Smith’s diverse passions and healthy obsessions led him on a genre-crossing journey. While learning piano and violin in rigorous classical settings, Smith’s musical palette continuously sought new sounds, leading him to serve as the drummer/vocalist in his middle school Punk/Screamo band, electric guitarist in a Rock duo, and even the lead fiddler in the regionally touring Bluegrass/Gospel band The Circuit Riders. Oh, and all of this was while he was programming and selling games to his friends for their calculators.
