  • Musician Max Collins on Not Hinging Your Identity on Success
    To help you grow your creative practice, our website is available as an email. Subscribe July 22, 2021 - As told to Isabel Slone, 1817 words. Tags: Music, Mental health, Success, Inspiration. On not hinging your identity on success Musician Max Collins (Eve 6) on experiencing the mountaintops and valley depths of fame, learning how to have an identity apart from your work, and Twitter as a creative outlet. I’ve noticed that you can be really self-deprecating about the music you’ve made with Eve 6. One time you literally tweeted, “my band is awful.” How does being low-key embarrassed about your creative output impact your ability to make art? In spite of how it may seem, I’m actually really proud of those records. I have pride mingled with embarrassment about the records that I wrote and recorded between the ages of 17 and 23. I didn’t have a worldly guile. I was literally writing that first record in my bedroom at my parents house. Things like ambition weren’t really crowding my mind. To make people understand what the feeling is like, imagine reading a diary entry that you wrote when you were 17 years old, only in this case it was published to the world and 2 million people paid for a copy of it. I think if I wasn’t able to deride those songs there would be something wrong with that. I have a kind of objectivity about it. That might be a little abnormal for an artist, but I think it is actually pretty sane and healthy.
