“Take It Slow” is a fun, modern acoustic pop-country track with a little humor and a whole lot of truth—because we’ve all watched a “slow start” turn into full-speed real quick.

Written from the perspective of an observer rather than a judge, Politics and Religion places two of society’s most divisive forces under the same neon light. The song unfolds in a barroom where faith meets doubt, conviction meets contradiction, and no one leaves fully converted—but maybe a little more honest.

The world can feel like nonstop bad news, so I wrote a little musical breather: a blues song about not having the blues. It’s playful, honest, and a reminder that taking a break from the chaos isn’t denial—it’s survival.
