In Their Words: “‘Tiny Fires’ was written during the height of the pandemic, while I was isolated from my wife and son. All I had to keep me company was the neon glow of the television spewing news of the world while it crumbled under the weight of uncertainty. The whole wide world went up in flames along with everything I thought I knew. It was all different now. I picked up a pen and this song came pouring out.
“People are the problem, but people are the solution. We don’t know how to fix anything but know we have to try. I wanted to convey the beauty in the broken, the eloquent mundane, and the insurmountable feeling of hopelessness we unknowingly cast upon ourselves. Once you look it in the eyes, you realize it’s just a passing thing. I hope this record, this song, can help anyone out there by saying, ‘You are not alone. The world’s on fire, but we all burn together.'” — Jason Erie
