It’s predictably unpredictable. Life-altering events are rarely planned or considerate of our daily schedules. They’re rather impolite in that way. For singer-songwriter Joshua Dylan Balis, a barrage of sirens, plumes of black smoke and a shutdown elevator on a chilly February morning in 2019 in downtown Dallas ushered in a new way of looking at life.
“It’s so odd, but this is how distracted and frazzled I felt right then,” Balis says over the phone from his home in East Nashville, where he’s lived since September 2019. “I was running down the stairs and there was a girl in front of me, and my pants and my belt were still undone, and I thought, ‘Oh, this is weird, I’m chasing a girl with my pants falling down.
But following the February fire was a period of dedication to make the most of his time and talents. Balis made peace with his feelings on the full-length album he recorded in Dallas to follow up the EP. With the backing of local label State Fair Records, he had a set of songs ready to see the light of day, but he knew it wasn’t what he wanted to put out into the world. Those recordings were scrapped.
