came home to chicago at 4am saturday morning with a very full heart and super high spirits
a huge thank you to Marisa for inviting me out to play for my first time in milwaukee,, and on only the greatest Spook Audio Soundsystem. the love in Club Timbuktu for you was overflowing for your birthday - there's good reason your birthday party is one of the best annual celebrations.
i had so much fun sharing some of my fave selections with y'all, and I could not stop smiling from the kind words some of you shared with me afterwards. it's motivating my drive to be more active and to fall back in love with the things i enjoy - i hope we get to meet again very soon!
love

coming through with the honor of celebrating the dearest Marisa's birthday on one of my favorite sound systems in all the land
i'm having a fun time selecting tracks i've always wanted to hear on this system, and also navigating a set that jumps out of my most serious and more into my fun side
can't wait to see everyone very soon, take care and talk soon

this thing on?
i’m playing in chicago for the first time ever in helping welcome subjet and mama mk to the city. it’s such a joy to get to share this evening with the talented friends i made during my first year here - you will not want to miss a minute.
see you very soon.

“Do you get so overwhelmed that your heart just stops?
Can it… just stop?
Today marks a 3 year milestone of breaking the debilitating relationship and addiction I endured with alcohol for a majority of my 20s. I’ve never quite talked about it like this before - the gruesome details of how it feels to implode.
Fighting within yourself, while the outside pushes you further in.
To narrate and to celebrate, I present to you my first mix since 2020 titled “Panic Signal,” featuring a spoken word introduction written and produced by myself under the guidance of my dear friend and roommate, Thysbe. I aim to walk the listener through old rituals of withdrawal, small improvements, relapse, clarity, and new beginnings while also challenging myself to take myself to a place I dare never to return.
Thank you for your support all these years in getting better. Cheers to three years.

Suppose I’ve been quiet on this for a little bit.
This has been one of the most challenging Driftmore Music & Arts Festival to plan and execute yet, but I look forward nonetheless to doing everything to make it work for those who want, and maybe even need it. Every decision going into this festival has been with the best interest of each and every person it will affect, and I cannot wait to see this through.
I’m playing a set for you first thing Saturday morning called “Rude Awakening,” and without saying much now it will say so much then. These challenges in life are going to force you to move, to act, to laugh, to cry, to grit your teeth and to force a smile, to celebrate, and to say goodbye to the world behind you. I hope to speak eloquently about this through my selections.
See you all in one week. With love.
Hey y’all!
Unfortunately due to a scheduling conflict on my end with other commitments, I am unable to perform at Reboot Social Open Decks this Friday night. I appreciate everyone’s support and enthusiasm to see me play, and I ask that you please bring that enthusiasm with you to support the other amazing talent on the lineup.
Thank you for your understanding, I’ll catch y’all next time!

Something special and lowkey, but most importantly something with my bestie Thysbe.
Join us for something different in the forest at Driftmore Music & Arts Festival this year with a blanket, a Yerba, and the will to let go.
