About
Records That Saved My Life
Records That Saved My Life is not just an attention-grabbing marketing ploy (or is it?), it’s a real phenomenon I’ve experienced.
Growing up, I was always labeled an “old soul”, which is code for “awkward and hard to be friends with”. Sometimes, music was my only friend, and I attribute a lot of my personal growth and accomplishments to the music that helped me through times of suffering.
This website is a celebration of the records that helped me feel understood, powerful, or comforted throughout my life.

As a lifelong music lover and overly sentimental person, creating Records That Saved My Life has been a passion project for me. Some of it may borderline oversharing, but I’ve never been one to shy away from telling others how I feel.
The name, Records That Saved My Life is not an exaggeration. Being able to share stories about the music that shaped me is such an honor, and I truly hope that everyone who reads through this website can discover their new favorite album.
