Ever go “hey I haven’t heard from this artist I admire in a long time”, and then you find out it’s because they turned out to be a giant piece of shit blaming their failures on *insert marginalised group of people* ?

Moved to the US a few weeks back. Might be here a month, a year, longer, who knows.

But I’m excited, I’m writing every day, I can’t wait to play shows and I’m very excited for a new adventure.

Took a long break from my usual posting and online routine. It’s been a hectic few months. I’ll be posting a lot more and explaining everything around Mid March.

I’m excited, scared, everything in between but I have a plan and I’m gonna make it fuckin happen

Starting the new year off right. I had the privilege of working with Scummy Water Tower again on an essay about my new live album, and what live music means to me.

Take a read, hope it resonates. Linked below ⬇️
2024 was a very eventful year for Irish alt-country singer-songwriter @podgelane.bsky.social as he released a new studio album as well as a live album. He penned another exclusive essay for us, this time on why he has such an affinity for live #music and albums. scummywatertower.com/artist-essay...

It’s my birthday I released a cover of John Prine, and wrote lots of words. I’m heading to the US in 2025. Petrified but excited for what’s to come.

“How to Make Noise When Nobody’s Watching is a compelling set that should hit home for all who enjoy singer-songwriters of both long ago and today”

Thank you to The Old Grey Cat for the kind words on my live record earlier this month.Check out the full review below 🤠

hey not to be all corny but please understand and internalize that your creative work is vital and beautiful whether others see/hear it or not and that your creative expression enriches the world just by your having done it

Anyone need an urgent upbeat original Christmas song for a sync?

Asking for me, who finished three for a different project and now has two with no home till next Christmas 🤷🤷‍♂️

Former Amazon worker here; do not cross this picket line. Don't do it. Don't even order from them (unless absolutely necessary). They're a disgusting company to work for and the reason for my knee problems that required years of physical therapy.

Fuck Amazon. We stand with the workers! 👊🏻✨

Which song could it be? How green is that jacket? Where is the gold buried? Most of these questions and more to be answered tomorrow!

In the past week, I have delved into music and art more than ever.

Podcast, interviews, movies and albums that I have always said I would “get back to”.

I can say it beats doom scrolling.

Ok finally back here. I couldn’t do it anymore on the other place. Got new music coming soon, and lots of dumb jokes and photos of Gamecube/WII games.
