@MissArone :
Oh my god what have we done!
So…
The last time we performed for a hometown audience was, get this, November 6th 2018 - SO much has happened to the point where if I continued the “befores” it would look like a shopping list of inedible, frustrating, sickening, wherewasigoingwiththisohyeah it’s been a while. Not hungry making.
But we’re doing it, goddamnit, and I am here for it! I am also terrified of performing music that feels detached to the present day, despite my connection to it. But it’s so special. This musical project with Aron has meant life or death at times, a healing mantra or a weapon, both for me - and from what I hear from those who’ve taken the leap to reach out to us directly - for others as well. I can’t tell you how important it is for me to sing the way I do to our music. It’s like breathing. I haven’t breathed since 2018, so this is a big deal, and I want it to count. Be sure we will do a deep dive for those fans who’ve followed us through thick and thin. Looking forward to seeing you there!
