What’s up everyone! Surely you can tell we’ve been pretty quiet lately. We’ve been slowly cooking this album for what feels like a million years and it’s pretty exciting to say it’s finally starting to sound like something-parts of it at least.
Turns out when everyone’s basically in their 30s with full lives and working every day to survive what wickedness is thrown our way.. it’s pretty hard to keep momentum going and practice once a week, get everyone in the same room regularly for sessions etc.. Music is so important and beautiful and with these full lives it becomes nestled in with everything else rather than taking precedent over everything. And that’s okay! I think it’s a sign that we are all doing lots of cool and lovely things with our time and are at peace with all of those things.
Point is everyone’s out here doing their best. Life is hard but it’s also so beautiful, and I believe in you and I believe in me/us.
if you’ve made it this far I’d like to play a little game with you. I (Coco) am a woman about town with what I do for work (gardening). This means you have pretty decent odds of seeing this flowery little gardenmobile buzzing about on any given day. If you can catch a snapshot of my car, DM us (or me @mococartin ) and I’ll text you a sneak peek of some music from the album. Furthermore, don’t be afraid to gimme a honk or a wave or say hi if you see me. I would be tickled! Let’s ensure our world stays whimsical and beautiful and connected. I’ll see ya around town, and will keep you posted on what’s next 💛❤️
Reuben Philips has some big shoes to fill. The first couple weeks have been very interesting. Getting to know a new dog and learning all their quirks and looking for Dexter in him and finding him/not finding him in those has been bittersweet. We still have a lot to learn since he’s just a puppy, but so far he and I have already become very bonded. He is so kind and excitable, painfully intelligent, a wonderful snuggler and loves to run, and has nestled his little soul into my life quite seamlessly. I feel very lucky that he went up for adoption basically the same hour I decided to give myself permission to finally consider another dog. He’s going to be a wonderful companion, I can’t wait to see what the future holds for us! ❤️🐶
