how is no one screaming from the rooftops that PETEY USA is one of the best songwriters out right now??

his new one “Anything In Between” proves he’s much more than a scroll-stopping sketch comic––he’s a generational voice, somewhere between The Mountain Goats, Weezer, and TWY.

Sometime months after the first No Earbuds Fest, a friend told me they got stopped by a group of younger punks while wearing the official fest tee.

“You were there?! Are they doing it again?,” they asked.

Well, this is for them and anyone whose ever had a big idea and just f*cking went for it...

big congrats to my buds in FIME!

their new album is fuzzed-out, existential, and full of heart in a way *I know* a lot of you would love if you gave it a spin. if you trust my taste even a little, go listen ⤵️

Sent an email about a new band. Out of all the links I provided—music, video, etc—the only one that multiple top blogs clicked was the band’s Instagram.

Not the music. Just the IG.

Bands: like it or not, sometimes your socials really are your first impression!

did you know I have a substack? I don't write there often but I was inspired to when I saw that we were assuming $5000 would be enough money to support working parents lol

I’ve spent 15 years marketing music—but nothing’s made me a better storyteller than becoming a parent.

Haven't made this public yet but I've written 2 children’s books and I'm trying to find my way into a whole new world. Any illustrators or publishers in my orbit? Would love to pick your brain!
