PSA
by Liberty Styles
“I can be a good force in this world, and I can also need help, and I can also be a hot mess. And LEARN from that.” These are words that inspired my most recent EP, entitled “Hot Mess” (released Jan 21, 2022). The song/video featured is called PSA (video edited by Leon Chase). The full album is available on Bandcamp and Spotify.
