    No cringe here, I think many can relate to picking up your instrument whether it be a good day or a bad day and just going at it no matter if it sounds good or bad. This video is highly relatable. Pouring out your soul with sound is what I see here

      fax, fun to see it come to life even if its not a finished idea or sound, tbh the end had me wishing it was longer lol even like the NO NO maybe part would sound good in a song to me without the maybe part but without this video most ppl wouldnt even get to see that part or hear how it works on something like that etc. im rambling but my point is its cool to hear and see stuff like this

    Dude this is how you do it. This is what writing is all about, improvising, not caring how awkward you look, getting creative, swaying and messing around and feeling the groove, and finally just being a fucking amazing artist. I love how authentic and raw your content is, never lose that brotha. Love your band 💚💚

    Im terrible at writing long comments so please forgive me in advance.
    This was the most authentic video I have ever watched in a long time. To see someone basically unheard of, practice in such a passionate and colourful state is such an experience. Its like watching a child grow up to be someone special.
    Im still learning to play guitar as a beginner but if I can play as proficiently as you then I would have something I can be satisfied about.
    Thank you and good shit my man

It hasn't been my top 5 greatest months of my life but i assure that your music has meant a lot to me. At least in my self-conscius talk with myself before sleep. So thank u for ur art, keep posting this kind of stuff !! Hope ur doing great 💗.
    PD: U should upload an EP to a Spotify Account (besides the one of your band). I mean a singular acoustic EP of all your stuff here in RUclips just as it's uploaded ‼‼

    DUDE! YOU'RE AMAZING! i can't wait till i'm as good as you :O
    i keep double checking this comment to make sure it's good so if it sounds bad, that's cuz i don't usually do stuff like this, haha.
    you've really inspired me with your uploads, especially uploads like this, haha. i'm trying to start my own midwest emo band, and in doing so, i am composing my own music - i just can't seem to make it in the style i want to make my music in.
    i love your music that you post, and i would love for a way to get in contact with you because i would LOVE to know how you compose your music (and maybe get some help along the way) - i am struggling with chord theory and stuff, and it seems you've got that down pretty well, haha.
    i'd consider this as good as getting in contact with brendan lukens or austin davis, to be honest - in my books, you're up there with the midwest emo greats. i'm certain if you were around 2015, you would be a massive solo artist, haha.
    it's not only your solo work that really inspires me, though. it's also your work with your band, vacant space. i love everything to do with it, and i understand that it isn't all your work, for example your vocalist is exemplary, but the melodies and everything are also just super satisfying to listen to.
    anyhow, i hope you reach back and we can talk. in the meantime, i'll be listening to your dreamy midwest emo riff (but it's a full song), she knows and head in the clouds, haha.
    thank you for your time. :)

    The chord along with your voice at 0:14 - 0:17 or so is awesome. What's the tuning and stuff I wanna steal that it's giving me ideas. Bro, actually I have words for that too. "Time, went, taking your memories. I've been running on fantasies " Time being on that two note thing at 0:14. I actually would be so down to talk with you if you'd be down about this.
