Pushing forward with the intensely self-aware truth-telling he’s always brought to his music, Ruston Kelly immersed himself in the making of The Weakness: a blisteringly honest but profoundly hopeful album that ultimately reveals our vast potential to create strength and beauty from the most painful of experiences. “I hope this music helps people to become the hero of their own lives by understanding their own weaknesses a little better,” says Kelly. “And I hope it helps them to see that tragedy, however it manifests for you, doesn’t ever have to be the period at the end of the sentence.”
