These are songs from 2014. They are 'slated' to be released at some future date (a.k.a. I have soft plans to start working on them again, someday, like maybe after inventing and finishing a bunch of year-long challenges, writing 1000 new songs, prioritizing other albums, being afraid for years cuz they are important-to-me songs...)
Anyway, this is a little piece of my heart.
Track 1 is for myself
Track 2 is for Bryan
Track 3 is for Stephanie
Track 4 is for God, or my heart, or both (plus all hearts, maybe for you, if you relate).
xo Jessica
p.s. these tracks are the exact scratch tracks that have been on my handheld recorder since 2015, the ones I had on there to "learn the album" so I could someday add orchestrations...wanted to release em today, cuz it's my nephews' bday and these are big-heart songs, and risk songs, and he's a brave heart warrior and I love him.

Songs wrtten by Jessica Fogle, in 2014.
Everything's True pt 1 was released on Bandcamp in Dec 2016, post a futility-making election, that made me panic and made time feel absurd and wasted, and my heart-activism activated and tried to hurry up this album (by first leaking it, then by doing other things, cause my social anxiety had made me the worst promoter with previous albums, so I used challenges like 365 Songs in 365 Days and 12 albums in 12 months to get out of my own way...partly by adding new roadblocks...which has been an absurd thing to realize and learn from...)
This is Everything's True pt 2 cuz I think it's funny to state that all things are true, but then still divide them into categories. Which we do (churches, ways to attain peace, healing methods, but also anything ever anywhere...)
Cover art is a scrambled destroyed piece of art made by my friend Cat Jackson originally (see pt 1), but destroyed embellished played with by me, Jessica aka JJ because that's what I wanted you to call me in 6th grade so let's make it stick now (because it didn't stick then)(I tried).
