hi everyone :ā) my album āsongs i wroteā is available now on bandcamp and cd.
this is a big day for me. iāve been working on the songs on this album for a long time. one i wrote almost a decade ago. a lot of them have been through various stages of writing, recording, mixing and otherwise sitting on my computer gathering dust. today they are yours. iām excited to move on to new things.
also, iām taking these songs on tour starting today in stevens point! catch me and the poet chelsea tadeyeske in the midwest and east coast through early august. these shows will be the first time i play any of these outside of appleton, wisconsin. hope to see you at one.

peace to all with love,
ridley

join us nov 19th for the conclusion of only childās (@hotspider ) successful event series ābreathing roomā at the fsm house (918 n. oneida). starts at 6pm.

@musicgoroundgreenfield and @voltarecordsllc return with another installment of our all ages show series, once again at @cactusclubmke on November 14.
