PKWYS/Gil , describes the initial decision with the EP 's name:

" At first, this was going to be a self-titled record. Originally as a working title to one of the songs, I decided to name the EP This May Leave A Bruise. It sorta started off as a joke between Chris, my good friend and producer, and myself. However, I saw it as the perfect fit as the title because of the emotional roller coaster I went through putting this EP together. The overall theme in each song I would say touches on vulnerability, and processing emotions and topics that I’ve deemed too personal to share. "


"Swing For The Fences" gives just a taste of what's to come for the Pop Punk virtuoso ,

with heart and grit , PKWYS is sure to bring more two stepping bangers to an emonite near you.
