Folk Song

If I've ever talked with you about music, we've probably talked about LUCY. The ultra-prolific Western Mass cult hero has been the most important artist in my life for the past seven years. In 2024, he released three albums. Beyond that, he's cooking on at least four active side projects. In my book, everything he releases is required-listening. So it would be impossible to choose a true favorite. The depth of LUCY's catalogue is one of the special things about his work. But I narrowed it down by focusing on his last release: Cooper B. Handy's Album Vol. 9. This one is dense -- a lotta gems. Here's a playlist of all the vol. 9 songs I really hope you'll listen to. Among those, "Folk Song" stands out. I'm obsessed with the switch-up from the verse to the chorus. Every day, I walk around with a million LUCY lines floating in my head. This song has a bunch of them: Who you gonna call when the levee runs dry? Said fuck the cops -- cuz they got the wrong girl and they got the wrong guy You got a thing for the world I can see it in your eyes Said fuck the cops -- cuz they got the wrong girl and they got the wrong guy They put him in the ground and I see him in the sky I got a thing for the world you can see it in my eyes. Money -- people kill for that money ... Who you gonna call when you wanna know why? They put you on hold, and you watch another day go by

Stereo by pavement

Malkmus is a master of the cheeky lyric but my favourite is from Stereo when him and Nastanovich sign the following: Malkmus:”What about the voice of Geddy Lee How did it get so high? I wonder if he speaks like and ordinary guy?” Nastanovich:”I know him and he does!” Malkmus:“And you’re my fact-checking cuz” Nastanovich:”Aww” It’s very sweet and fun.

thinking of art projects as an affair

Think about it all the time, be obsessed with it! Sneak off and work on your project. wonder how it is when you’re not around.

Making An insane dress up theme

30th birthday theme was “little miss” not the characters just the energy of being a little miss. The fits were so good my heart is so full

Having the best friends

All my friends are great and I love to hang out with them and feel loved & to be silly, and when they hang out and get along I'm like damn I’m really killing having a rich social circle and deeply fulfilling friendships. If you’re a reflection of your three closest friends (or whatever that saying is) I’m a god damn god. My friends are the best and I love them SO MUCH
