TJ Pompeo has taken the past 4 years developing his craft and growing into his own as an artist. He will be the first to admit that the diversity he brings to the table is something he has officially embraced with 'Pompeiio'.
“The story behind the EP title is somewhat of a history lesson in itself”, says Pompeo. “Pompeii was a beautiful, thriving port city in Ancient Italy. Then in 79 AD, Mount Vesuvius erupted and covered the entire city in volcanic dust and ash. Now, what remains of the city is known as the ‘Ruins of Pompeii’. I wanted to take that story, spin it into a metaphor for my EP, and discuss the different volcanoes (pride, envy, lust, anger, pain, loneliness) in my walk that have attempted to erupt and create the Ruins of ‘Pompeiio’.
