Role Model on Feeling Lost While Making New Album

Role Model has shared his struggles with feeling "lost" during the creation of his latest album, Chuck Timely & the Hourglass. The singer-songwriter, born Tucker Pillsbury, spent two years working on the record, which came out earlier this month.

In an interview with Lena Dunham for Interview Magazine, the 29-year-old admitted that being single while friends settled down took a toll on him. "I worked on this one during a two-year span of being single," he said. "It was a lot about feeling lost and constantly having these crisis moments of 'Where do I belong?'"

He added, "I'm at an age where people are getting married and friends are falling in love and taking next steps. I was stuck in time and things were moving past me."

The Sally, When the Wine Runs Out hitmaker also found it challenging to have a different career path from his peers. "All my friends work and have real jobs, so they're free on the weekends," he told Dunham. "You have Monday through Friday being by yourself, whether you're working or not, being in your head."

Pillsbury, who recently split from actress Dakota Johnson, recalled feeling overwhelmed as his career soared during the album's production. "I think my career reaching a new place while making the album was very overwhelming," he shared. "You're feeling lost and stagnant, but you also can't really do anything about it because you're on the road or working."

He joked, "Obviously any songwriter is going to be overly dramatic, but it does feel that way."

Role Model is set to make his acting debut in Dunham's upcoming film Good Sex, starring alongside Natalie Portman and Mark Ruffalo.
