Luke Hogfoss - Florida (2023)

“‘Florida’ was written in my Seattle apartment during the Covid lockdown. I was supposed to be in Miami, Florida, but the trip got canceled, so I had Florida on my mind. This album contains multiple characters: some real, some fictional, and some a sort of combination. It was nice to write about a place very far away. I grew up in South Carolina and we would take family vacations to Florida. I remember seeing a rocket launch on Cocoa Beach and thinking the sun was rising. While mixing this album I realized I was also writing about things going on in my life at the time: a deterioratIng relationship, substance abuse, and emotional regulation. So I think this album covers a lot of ground. It's a classic case of an artist working through their problems, but also a series of fun stories and characters such as the fictional Miami porn star Johnny Salami and a hitchhiker taking the bridge to Key West. Seems like everybody has some sort of Florida, whether it's a state of mind or a tangIble entity. This album is mine.”
