Hey, it’s Sash:
This is the very first issue of my newsletter, and I couldn’t think of a better time for it to arrive than January 1, 2025.
A new year, a fresh start, and the perfect moment to share what I’ve been creating, thinking, and loving.
⨀ New Song
My latest track, Fucking Perfect, is out now. It’s raw, honest, and a little messy — just like the name suggests.

⨀ Redefining Success in Art
I wrote an essay exploring what it really means, to me, to “succeed” as an artist.
Spoiler: It’s not about the numbers.

⨀ Book Notes — Zorba the Greek
I love re-reading this at the start of a new year.
It grounds me in what really matters about life: passion, freedom, and fully embracing the present moment.

⨀ What I’m Loving
I’m rewatching Dexter, and it’s as twisted and brilliant as I remembered.
If you’re looking for something binge-worthy, this might be it.
⨀ On Aesthetics and Witnessing Beauty
Crafting the aesthetic for my new single and EP artwork has been a joy.
It’s about slowing down, truly seeing the world (not just looking at it), and capturing its beauty in art.
I’m writing my next essay on this — being an artist isn’t about identity or output, it’s more so a state of being, a way of witnessing life unfold.
Thanks for taking a moment to pause here with me.
Here’s to a year of seeing, creating, and sharing the beauty all around us.
And thank you for being here early in this new chapter — for putting your trust in me and my work.

P.S. The only way this newsletter grows is by word of mouth, and I’m relying on the first people reading it to help me out.
If you enjoyed this, I’d love for you to forward it to someone you think would too. If each person reading this shares it with just one other person, we can rise above the noise of this busy world together.
I’m no longer afraid to ask directly — whether it’s sharing my art or this newsletter — because I believe in human connection over algorithms.
Thank you for being here. It actually means everything to me.
