The video I made for the second single, "Wherever I Go" on the forthcoming @bhamiltonwastaken.bsky.social LP is out. I also played drums, engineered, and mixed it. Joel Robinow played keys and sang backups, @nelsondevereaux.bsky.social recorded and played the horns. Ryan did everything else.

It just turned into Bandcamp Friday. Bandcamp doesn’t wet their beak on these days. In light of this we present to you an offering. A truce. A live blues.

“Fifty Feet From Where We Normally Are (Live at Sharkbite)” comes out this Friday for viewing on YouTube and listening on all the streaming things. 

BlueSky is a goddamn graveyard. Let's get some fourteen year old Russian kids with spicy language and internet access in here.

Spotify asked us to record a 30 second “year in review” clip for our fans, or whoever is listening to us without necessarily enjoying it. Like inadvertently being around a dull breeze, or any form of bird.

We made this and they didn’t accept it. I'm going to call the police.

This song I played drums on a little while back is out now, by my old buddy Liam Howland. We've known each other since high school, where we played in a school band together. Liam's a great singer / songwriter and audio engineer. "Glad you're gone" is available on all streaming platforms.

“Back in the Line” and “Marion Out West” from our live thing at Sharkbite Studios in Oakland is out on YouTube.

All of the tunes from that day will come out as a release before the end of the year. Here is a bit of “Release the Hounds.”

Thanks for listening.

Here is a video and a link to it. We’ll throw the entire session out soon. Stephen Miller is a bitch.

Bay Beats, through the San Francisco Public Library, has graciously decided to accept three of our releases over their past three entry periods. Their new selections are up as of today. This is what music sounds like in a place with weed supermarkets.

@marcmaron.bsky.social is this solo a Billy Gibbons rip off? We’re divided.

B. Hamilton is opening a Hardly Strictly Bluegrass afterparty for The Mekons this Saturday at The Make Out Room in San Francisco. It is also a benefit for Sweat Relief upon looking at the flyer. Nice. They are very influential and know what John Peel’s vocal mics smelled like.

Ok. Here is the fifth one of these things.

This one is about a song called “Susan” that I’ve played way too many times.

I’ll post another one next Sunday around 6pm. I slept in today like I said I was going to last week. Mission accomplished.

I have 55 more characters to use. Fuck Curtis Yarvin.

Ryan started a Substack to put stuff he writes somewhere aside from in the trash. Some of the stuff he writes is this sentence you're reading. Ryan is very handsome and the voice of a generation.

Each post uses a song of ours as a prompt to write about god knows what. Here is this weeks offering.
