My Album Discoveries of 2024 is live!

18 live shows, hundreds of albums, & countless hours in an obsessive search for sound—some brilliant, some not, all part of the journey.

No rankings (ranking art is absurd). These are the ones that stuck, moved, & kept me coming back. Thanks for the support!

twitter is back, baby!
Bluesky is excellent & still taking shape; but this photo is insultingly ageist, & seems to suggest that a not-elderly woman is being gaslighted by a younger woman (daughter?) who is (no doubt) angling to get her mother declared senile so that she can "handle her mother's financial affairs."
happy first birthday to Bluesky, and what a year it's been!

with every day, the need for an open network that puts people first becomes increasingly clear. we're glad to be building this with you. after all, the heart of a social network is the people.
