As dreamcat himself will tell you, developing a positive, universal theme for a song or EP is not easy.

United through his music, these emotions come together to represent life in all its imperfect glory. For dreamcat, music has always been an escape; through his artistic lens, music becomes a vast new world through endless possibilities. “Juicebox” is more than just an EP; it's a snapshot of life.

Lyrics like “And when you’re feelin' like a low down junkie / You know I'm your best friend” provide a comforting backdrop, and the entire release feels like a warm shoulder you can lean on. dreamcat has done an outstanding job here, and together with the entirety of the “Juicebox” EP, there’s an incredible amount to love.
