MONO, my fifth studio album, will be out tonight at 9pm pst / midnight est. i went deaf in my right ear just over a year ago and this record was made in the midst of that loss. it’s about feeling alone and scared but also tough as hell because the worst thing happened and the earth didn’t shatter. MONO is quitting nicotine it’s remembering your little cousin’s birthday it’s not wearing makeup it’s leaving your asshole boyfriend it’s the moment after you’ve given your very last fuck. i poured my heart into this one and i hope you can feel it ❤️
our debut album SPECIAL FEELINGS is out now!!!! YEEEEEEE this project is about energy and self expression and we hope you love it. thank you to @robert.radziejewski & @sutu.eats.flies for helping us create the visual world for beam (see slide 3 for all his iterations), to @jlaportamasters for mastering the record, to @baileybluesmanagement , @unarchvdcashew & @symphonicdistro for getting this thing out into the world. if the tunes lift you up, our work is done. electric blue vinyl + tix for our first show ever available now if you wanna get down like that. link in bio. thank you for listening ❤️
one year of cochlear implant!!! sometimes life IS better with an electrode placed carefully in the depths of your inner ear. there have been many difficult days for sure but the moment i attach that magnet to my head in the morning (which turns the system on) it’s like giving my brain a sip of water after a long walk in the desert. just this weird form of relief i can’t totally describe. the sound through my processor is still pretty digital and limited in frequency range, but i hear many more things lol and it’s made my tinnitus way more manageable. and since the surgery i’ve had one of the most prolific years of songwriting in my life, even though music still sounds INSANE through my implant. so yeah. 10/10 would recommend but also it’s medical tech which means lots of fickle gear and sometimes the battery dies when i least expect it and apple won’t let you stream to one airpod and a hearing device simultaneously SMDH. if you have any questions about sudden deafness or cochlear implants throw em in the comments, nothing off limits. i’ll answer as many as i can. and for anyone dealing with a new disability lemme just say that it’s ok if you feel your identity changing. that’s been the hardest part for me. the loss of my old life, my old way of being, my self with two working ears. but me after deafness is still pretty badass even though i now spend more time doing jigsaw puzzles (s/o @magicpuzzleco ) and less time in loud restaurants. thank you to my partner and love @crybabysar for your boundless empathy and support. you have helped me navigate all of this with grace and humor and you never make me feel like i have something missing. @sethlovessushi for standing by me fearlessly, for helping me continue to realize my dreams even though some of them have changed. and all the rest of my wonderful friends and family for showing up so hard and so consistently when i needed you. finally, thank you to everyone who listens to the music, who comes to the shows, who sent me messages of support. you have buoyed me like the warmest sea
