from a while ago but it is in fact my latest release lol… but mostly sharing this one because it was part of an annual sound art festival, really incredible local and even international artists are involved every year, great platform for discovering some really freaky and fun sound stuff. i hope to participate in some of the upcoming events this year. also will be releasing more music soon i promise :) i’ll link the festival/info for my piece here too

promo time!! 😀 a friend and i collaborated on this and it came out today on a compilation album with lots of really really cool tracks and really amazing artists. super happy with ours and happy to be a part of the project! all of the bandcamp proceeds go to the san diego trans health and wellness center! have a listen if you’re interested and especially recommend if you like experimental/noise/freak stuff

ok this one is super biased but i really love the music i make. listening to creeps at night makes me feel like taking a sultry walk through dark hallways in a victorian nightgown that i don’t even own. i have no idea when it’s going to be released but here’s a temporary soundcloud link.

i think my music walks this experimental/art pop line? i struggle to define it but i’d love to know what you think! i have an album coming out on friday and the remaining songs have much more of the experimental edge to them; the singles are pretty accessible.
wishing you the best of luck with your zine launch! if you have a link i’d love to check it out :)

you probably know them already. i am from the home of Minutemen, beautiful sunny San Pedro, the port of LA and let me tell you... pedro does extreme pride really well and that is especially true when it comes to this band (and in this case the pride is absolutely warranted). george hurley built a fence behind my driveway for us. i played bass in his drum room when i was like 11 lol. yes i am flexing these things because it's awesome and he's an extremely kind man. mike watt is around town sometimes and he comes off as very unapproachable and cranky which is also awesome and funny. ultimately he is also nice though.
there are still lots of blue-collar middle-aged (to quite old) people in rock bands in pedro going really hard. one of the biggest blessings of my life is having grown up here (despite the town's issues and generally freakish nature) because of the music scene and support from older musicians. minutemen are our (humble) stars, and i'm grateful for them, and i'm grateful for the many rock/punk/jazz/blues/noise/freaky sound art people in my town.
"A Wailing Of A Town: An Oral History of Early San Pedro Punk And More 1977-1985" is a great book, i was super pumped when it came out and everyone who was around at the time had things to say about it/things to expand on.
i have love for this place but i still am dying to move away. btw. don't get it twisted... i am getting out of town or i die.
