Finally got to snap some shots of my dear friend @connthornton.bsky.social the other day. They're an incredible performer and someone who has often been a teacher and mentor for me musically - I'm just glad got to take some pics before the worldwide tour happens.

feeling the unquenchable urge to fill my home with religious relics, antique knicknacks and unplayable musical instruments from the 1880s but my friends and family are complaining that i have to “buy proper homewares” instead like a washer/dryer and a cafétiere
