Indie electronica / alt pop from Miami. Moody, but still hopeful. Familiar, but hard to place. Reflective, but you might want to dance.

Hey, note to new follows:
We didn't follow you to get you to listen to us;
We followed you bc we want to listen to you, especially when you talk about music.
Talk is the oxygen of music culture, + today doesn't have enough of it.
Also, we're a band of people; not just billboards.

Sharon Van Etten is such a treasure. Her Remind Me Tomorrow record produced by John Congleton changed the way we thought about composition / production. And love the new Attachment Theory material. This stripped down KEXP performance is 🔥

Also hoping to revisit collab idea w/ @rockstarelise.com. Traded some voice notes we’re excited about. Let’s see if we can manifest a solid Bluesky #MusicSky finding each other story.
Ok. back at it this month. Had to hit day job for bit to fund next phase — new release coming (been done for a year, but now it’s time). New track in works — something to process the violence in this world. & video we started last Oct, but editing / learning new software took longer than we thought.

37yrs ago, our second single from Vivid, Cult Of Personality, was released - July 14, 1988!
Thank you to every fan who’s ever cranked it to 11, moshed to it, studied the lyrics, questioned authority, and demanded more. This song belongs to all of you now.

So happy for the joy we see on our friend’s face.
By November of 2020, I was at the end of my rope. Though it took 15 more months, transition had became my only real path forward. I had known I was a girl for 40 years, but I finally had to do something about it. I’m so fucking glad I did. 💗✨

Listening to Still Corners’ Black Lagoon… it’s as if Suzanne Vega and Chris Isaak were doing a version of Bronski Beat’s Smalltown Boy.. this is a feature, not a bug.
