Spotify wrapped celebrations are beautiful to see, because I love when an artist can recognize their growth! I also know this campaign creates comparison in a lot of arrists, even those you might think of as successful. My heart is with all of you right now as you stay focused on your own road map 🧡

Please celebrate your “wrapped” if you want to but stop scrolling for a few days if seeing everyone else’s numbers is getting into your head. You’re an artist. You make music for real people. Not metrics. And I see you. I hear you. 🧡

Anyone else get anxious when things should be good? While I’m suuuuuper grateful for the support I’ve received about my podcast launch, I also want to normalize how hard it is to just relax inside of these moments, or celebrate appropriately!

I have a lot to say about this year. It was low key awful. And yet somehow I am coming out of it with renewed energy. Better health. A magazine, and finally…. The podcast!

“chartless” is a space for musical creators in our current uncharted landscape. We launch 12/1!

I love to buy merch from musicians and artists around the holidays (and all year, really)! Please feel free to drop links!

Musicians. Performers. Writers. Producers. Music makers. Music lovers. Here we are. Doing our thing. Doing our best. Making sounds. 💛

What joy to be back teaching weekly in-person vocal lessons in the NYC. And when I have a break, I make little videos to send to friends of their favorite songs 😘

Let’s normalize gap years for music careers. It’s a viable option for many students. And if you are going to college, empower yourself to ask what you’re hiring it to do for you rather than hoping they’ll “accept you.” 🧡

And I’m here for it. Can’t wait to do my guest spot about my favorite one 😆🌽

You’re invited to save this inspiring playlist from my community of DIY musicians, songwriters, producers and vocalists: I update it every Friday! open.spotify.com/playlist/0qf...

I’m here for all the art you have to share. 🧡 Last night I saw a music maker I coach play The Bowery Ballroom and life felt so full of hope, joy and creativity. This is what live music still brings to the world, and I’m so grateful.
