All joking aside, Kate is a badass and I’m lucky to have heron one of my labels (@killrockstars.bsky.social). Super proud of her and her awesome new album!!

*Exceleration is a label group that includes Candid, Kill Rock Stars, YepRoc, Alligator, SideOneDummy, Bloodshot, +1, Down The Road, Sundazed, Mom+Pop and more…. We also recently acquired Redeye Distribution which is home to Beggars Group among others…

1) I’m a recent father living in the ‘burbs of NYC.

2) I’m a jazz pianist and composer who’s currently setting up his first release on a label.

3) I’m an 10 year industry vet, first on the indie team at Spotify and now doing label development at Exceleration Music.

@natechinen.bsky.social also has a very good (probably better) one. Check that one too - imo the more jazz starter packs available the better!

Nice! Thanks for pointing me in the right direction :). Will share @natechinen.bsky.social ‘s as well!

@jeffbetten.bsky.social good one - thanks, man!

Or music ones in general…

…Of course he’ll still be expected to stay up to date on all Dropout content (once he can hold his head up that is).

As a new father I worry about this all the time. Social media wasn’t a factor until we were teenagers and our generation is still kind of screwed up by it - can’t imagine what it’s doing to kids now. I should apologize to my son in advance for what will be likely draconian screen time limits…
