Christian French finally released some new music and we can’t get enough of it!
Just last month, the 23-year-old alternative pop singer/songwriter shared his good things take time EP, which features the title track “good things take time” among other breakout singles.
Exploring love, patience, comprise, heartbreak and self-growth, French says good things take time is a mantra that has stuck with him the last few years. While studying science in college, the emerging artist was offered to tour with Chelsea Cutler, which eventually led into a major-label deal with Disruptor Records/RCA Records and a highly successful breakout single “head first.”
“I had no idea what I was doing,” French recalls. “I’m figuring it out as I go. I’ve just failed so many times as a musician and it’s really easy to just get down on myself, but ‘good things take time’ is like a mantra that stuck with me. If I put my best intention forward and just consistently try my best with a forward vision, then I’m going to get to where I [want to go].”
“There’s not one emotion that I feel this EP brings; you’re meant to feel all emotions when listening to this EP because it’s kind of mirroring what I’ve been going through – the ups and downs [of life] – but I would say at the end of it, it’s cheesy to say, good things take time and just know that when things are going horribly and you are not getting that bounce anytime, just like having the belief that things will get better as long as you are trying and putting your best intention forward. Because when you just like give up, that’s when things really go wrong. It’s just so important to be optimistic.”
While quarantined in the UK, French hopped on a Zoom with Celeb Secrets to describe the creative process behind good things take time EP, what it means to him, and hobbies he’s picked up during the pandemic.
