Dear friends, lovers, and ex-roommates,
You are cordially invited to an intimate evening of stories and songs featuring the full band debut of @sabeljanemusic , the new project of D.C.-based musician and writer Izzy Burke, with special guests @xk_scenario performing their first-ever unplugged set and a solo performance by @graceakell of Hotel Sewing Kit. Leave the earplugs at home for this one—you’re going to want to hear every last lyric.
A show like this only happens once in a blue moon. Don’t sleep on it.⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾⋆⁺₊⋆
Yours, &c.
Ms. Jane

In my latest Inkwell piece, I sat down with the organizers of the Green Room, an intimate DIY performance space in Mount Pleasant, to learn about what drives them to host opportunities for D.C. locals to experience high-caliber artistry in their own backyards. With major performance institutions like the Kennedy Center down for the count, now more than ever we need these kinds of grassroots efforts to bolster our local music community and give some of D.C.’s incredible musical talent the chance to shine.

This story was a real treat to write. Many thanks to @ktsimonian@rsandy93 and @chi_theartist for allowing me to have a peek behind the scenes at the work you’re doing.

Thank you for a sold out debut show last week @thepocket_dc . Such a pleasure playing alongside @kindaevilmusic and @marilyn.pham and seeing so many good friends come out for the show. Truly blessed to be surrounded by such great people.
More soon? Talk later. Bye. 💋

Usual disclaimer: I don’t really know how to record and mix stuff, I’m just foolin around in Garageband. My goal every time I do these more involved covers is to focus first on composition, and then try to get the mix at least better than my most recent prior attempt. I think I kinda did that. Idk you be the judge.
also sorry if it’s loud, i also don’t know how to master stuff lol.
Instruments used:
Yamaha A1M Acoustic-Electric
