Banjo as a tool of working-class resistance
A little bit of history with your #BanjoAunti

It’s essential to examine the roots of our culture so we can understand how we got here, and how we can move forward.

The Wreck of F. Scott Fitzgerald is a totally different song (that does not exist as far as I know).

This Thurs I’m collaborating with a whole bunch of CT songwriters to play on each others’ tunes as The CT Hope Collective at The Social in New London, CT to benefit the New London Homeless Hospitality Center. It’s going to be a really special show. When else will you see me do a glockenspiel solo?

Last night’s Halloween Hangover music and drag show at 33 Golden St. in New London hosted by Lucy Cigarettes was one to remember. The energy of the crowd was amazing. I went for a Frank Iero circa 2004 look, and I played a Les Paul Special instead of the Mustang. I liiiiiked it a lot.

Amon Düül II helped kick of Germany's Krautrock scene. Their album Yeti has dark vibes similar to Comus, but with electric guitars and organs thrown in the mix.

I can’t wait to hear this when it’s done!
@lysguillorn.bsky.social recorded some time-stretched birdsong for a song off the album I'm currently working on, and it sounds so eerie and good 🖤

I have a nephrology appt today and I forgot to not dress like a 15-year-old emo boy. I always worry about being taken seriously, at least medically. But I gotta live (in a skull t-shirt)

Y’all…I have a free outdoor gig tonight with the full band in Cheshire, CT at Ball and Socket Arts. Bring a picnic and hang out in a parking lot with us? The Sawtelles, our forever ride-or-die pals open. I’m pretty sure there’s a pizza place nearby so pie picnic sounds pretty dang good.

i know i'm preaching to the choir on Blue Sky, but if you think wearing a mask to prevent disease is tyranny, but kidnapping Latinos off the street is safety, then you are stupid

@kendixonct.bsky.social asked if I’d record Dave Alvin/X’s “4th of July” with him yesterday. One take overdubbed w/lap steel and my vocal, added fireworks recorded out our back window.

To be clear: today's ruling doesn't make it less likely your child is trans, which is the whole objective of the anti-trans movement: fewer trans children by any means. It only makes it far less likely your child has access to lifesaving medical care if they're trans, which has never been a choice.
