I write Of Note, a monthly newsletter about music writing worth reading. https://buttondown.com/of_note

A man of many paths that somehow all led to biscuits, music, sports, and writing. Chicago-based after stints in DC, NC, and CO.
Today’s events (and @themountaingoats.bsky.social) inspired me.

I’ve never written even a little bit of a song before. But here’s a little bit.

The Broncos crew at Almost Home in Chicago love that win.

Gonna finish the night out with Geologist!

Sound & Gravity was a ton of fun. Hope they do it again next year!

A really charming set. I’m glad I got to get the Doug Shaw experience.

The man himself, Doug Shaw.

Take 2 on David Pajo

Catching a little of David Pajo “Papa M” as I position myself to not miss Doug Shaw next.

Hear we go! Another night of Sound & Gravity Fest here in Chicago.

Kicking it off with the all-star Luke Stewart Chicago Quartet at Constellation.

I’ll always take an opportunity to see Luke and here he is with Ken Vandermark, Jim Baker, and Avreeayl Ra.

How about one more from that Expansion Trio set? Looking back at the videos, it doesn’t do it justice. There was a moment to open a song where Jeff set a rhythm and then it shifted to Jeremiah’s synths seamlessly and the whole crowd went “OOOOOOHHHH!!!” It was so cool @intlanthem.bsky.social

No better way to end this particular week than with Irreversible Entanglements. Moor Mother’s voice is vital in these times.

And here’s part of the stunning Expansion Trio set with Jeff Parker, Jeremiah Chiu, and Ben Lumsdaine. They hit a groove that released me. Everyone will be talking about this one. I can only hope someone recorded it @intlanthem.bsky.social
