This project started in 2022 in the basement of Graham Jonson’s (Quickly, Quickly)’s
home in Portland, Oregon. They made ‘Scared (To Admit It)’ in a day, and let it sit for a long time. Ava’s song ‘From Me’ blew up online, which led to new creative friendships. Ava started to work with Acrophase Records, it all felt very new and unreal. What followed was a writing frenzy, going through old voice memos looking for promising song ideas, and working with four different producers that each allowed Ava to tell a different story with their incredible help and talents.
Ava spent a month in Nashville recording the majority of the project with Josef Kuhn. She felt free to experiment, ask questions, change her mind, and they ate so many epic sandwiches on lunch breaks. “Dragonfly” feels like a patchwork quilt of post-college. Surviving sexual harassment and assault, and allowing herself to speak about it freely after spending almost a decade being ashamed. It’s kinda all over the place, but so is she. Ava feels no longer afraid to say everything on her mind since working on this project.
