He explains why he wrote nearly 100 songs, how fans are helping shape the final tracklist, and what he learned by temporarily banning love songs, heartbreak, piano, and guitar from his creative process.

JP also shares stories from touring arenas with Megan Moroney, writing with Sabrina Carpenter on Emails I Can’t Send, collaborating with Lewis Capaldi, and why great songwriting often begins with one good question—and knowing when to stop talking.
