Lisa Marie
The fact that she was an actual singer/songwriter was overshadowed by all the other nonsense, and some of the production sounds dated now, but she was a pretty bitchin’ lyricist and I always thought she had something. RIP. https://youtu.be/I6Et5oxanuU
Go Live or Bust!
This’ll probably be my last backing track experiment before I seriously get down to trying to figure out a live rig. Delving deeper into this artist and her synth pop-opera theatrics has been great fun. https://youtu.be/dnMGNhHaw_c
Fun with Backing Tracks!
With the new year, and at the urging of a couple trusted advisors, I have been starting to consider how to actually perform songs live with more layered arrangements. So far I’ve made a couple videos playing over backing tracks; here’s one of them! Liked this song since I was a kid but was late... Continue Reading →
HNY!
Thanks to anyone who took some time out of their year to have a gander at… whatever all THIS mess is! I appreciate you, even if you noped out immediately afterward! All the best for ‘23! https://youtu.be/2xRVLRpaGWk
Last BandCamp Drop of 2022: Preview
Well, Folks, it's hard to believe we're approaching the Holidays again. I suppose putting out an LP and being point-person for a new admin system at work will do that to a body.I'll be putting one more EP out on Bandcamp before the end of the year: three original tracks and a cover. The way... Continue Reading →
Pareidolia!
This year’s Halloween experiment is a batch of (largely improvised) musical vignettes based on the humanoid tendency (a very intense one in the case of yours truly!) to see faces in inanimate objects. I know, that is SUPER specific! YOU’RE WELCOME 🤡👹👻
2012.
Ten years ago, I turned 30. I didn't feel too ceremonious about the number itself. Maybe it sounded high-ish, because after all, I had never in my life been older. I was vaguely aware of traits the dominant culture might start attributing to me, but I was astute enough to realize that 30 wasn't old... Continue Reading →
A New Era.
Last summer an Instagram account I follow, whose creator (a local artist) captures forest fungi and other specimens, featured a photo of a mushroom I'd never heard of before. Laccaria amethystina, the amethyst deceiver. In addition to it being a purple mushroom, which is already mysterious and cool, the name arrested me at first sight.... Continue Reading →
Darlene.
Darlene Conner, I'm calling you my Valentine because it's nearly February 14 and you're hella important to me. But I never had a crush on you; I just identified with you deeply (as, I'm sure, did scores of mold-breaking, sarcastic-but-vulnerable, masculine-energied young girls in the 1990s). Some of us were paying closer attention than others.... Continue Reading →
