:: whole new life

:: For Tate, that "whole new life" is a vibrant tapestry of human emotion and expression, the culmination being his eponymous 11-track offering on Sanctuary Records. "The songs are all about the strongest passion of life, which is love. It's all about the feelings that you have for somebody, how relationships work and don't work, the misunderstandings, and all that it takes to keep a relationship working. That said, it's also about stepping out on you're own and trying new stuff, and not being afraid to take that big step. That makes it kind of autobiographical, because I'm taking that step, moving out from where I've been and stepping into other areas, and that's important for people to do."
