Seattle’s Brittany Davis has released a debut EP on Pearl Jam Guitarist Stone Gossard’s label, Loosegroove Records. Davis was born blind and started recording music around the age of 13 when they were homeless. They talk about their musical journey, reflecting on the past two years through music, collaborating with Gossard and addressing blindness in a song.

“As much as blindness as disability is romanticized, nah dude, that stuff ain’t romantic. That stuff impacts you in ways that a lot of people don’t think about,” Davis says.
