Elio Calvi-Golis 4/11/21 Happy new year! I wanted to explain why I’ve been offline this past year... It’s because THIS HAPPENED!! My best creation to date! Elio Calvi-Golis was born on November 4th and me and my girlfriend Adelaide couldn’t be happier. I love how animal it all feels, no one told me that I would feel like some kind of lioness fiercely fighting for and desperately loving this tiny little thing, that it could make be braver than I ever thought possible, that the moment you feel like you’re going to die, is the moment this new life is born. The intensity, the elemental desire to care for, to fulfil in all possible ways, the need of this tiny animal.. To witness in those first days, the flicker of a human stripped of all bullshit, just crying for its will to live. For me, being pregnant during the pandemic was really challenging and I suffered from a lot of anxiety. It’s such a momentous thing to go through in your body, in your mind, it felt too much at times.. I’ve never felt closer to Adelaide. I was really lucky I've had the support I needed when things got really challenging, and I needed to stay off social media as it all felt too intense. I wondered how having a child would effect my creativity, but I’ve never felt more inspired, and in wonder and awe at the world. I can’t wait to play you what I’ve been writing. I have some new music coming out soon, it’s good to be back! I’m sending you love out to wherever you are, until we meet again.
