I can’t even begin to get into this... but will try... Music has been my full time life for the last 9 years. Caveboy has been my world since 2015. The amount of energy we’ve put into this band is something I’ve never worked so hard at in my entire life. Can’t even tell you how many people didn’t believe in us, in this career path in the beginning (and even now). @lanadelcoonster and @ballsy_banos have been my rocks, my partners in crime, my bandmates and most of all best friends. They’ve become my family, and the stories we tell, the songs we’ve written, the bond that’s been created over this album is an experience I’ll never forget. No matter what happens from this point forward - we hit this milestone. It’s been a long time coming but holy shit am I ever proud of our journey and this record. So many nights I’ve not gone out with friends, so many relationships fallen victim to my career, chances at love lost, so many times I’ve distanced myself from every kind of socializing just to put my 100% into this and to my voice & craft. So much of these emotions are reflected in these songs and the nostalgia and longing, the growth, is all there. Today all the compromises and “sacrifices” feel like WINS. This job is hard. Those moments of feeling so broke, so tired, crying over the “what the fk am I doing with my life” feeling today all feel like they get to take a back seat. I love what I do, and today we get to celebrate taking risks and taking chances and the fact that we’ve KEPT @caveboymusic GOING FOR SO LONG. We celebrate it all and okay this is getting long and I’m exhausted but I’m so damn grateful to do what I love. The lows will inevitably come again but today I’m gonna focus on the highs. 🔥🌹❤️ thank you to @producedbydh @tsmsayswhat and most of all @bcav78 for being on this ride with us!

it’s been such a confronting year in my body for so many reasons - but one thing that never waivers is my undying gratitude for gender affirming surgery. I don’t celebrate much, dates don’t really matter to me.. but this one really does. 5 years kinda flew - felt like I only started living then. Here’s to more years being shirtless whenever I can 🦋

On opening night, it was clear Montreal was ready for Club DD’s. By 9 p.m., the floor was packed, with crowds spilling onto the street. It was the perfect debut for the new LGBTQ+ bar by Sarah Fobes, Mindy Stamper, Mint Simon, Laura Lloyd, and Kat Anderson, breathing new life into the iconic former Blue Dog Motel. The team transformed the space in just five weeks to create the perfect venue for pay-what-you-can dance nights, drag showcases, karaoke, and more. It’s a fresh, inclusive, and electric community hub where, as Fobes put it, “people trusted the space immediately.” “We want to rebuild community on the Main,” she said simply.
