Track 3: Patchwork Sky This song was the first I’d written in a long time- I dusted it off from being in the vault- brought it to the band and it was revived in the making of our debut album: “Time Will get away” ✨Listen to the rest of this song and album out everywhere ✨ “Asleep in a dream Under patchwork skies I’m caught in the sheets Tangled up in the long night I’m punching out stars ripping at seams Im foolin’ myself They don’t know I’m unraveling In a matter of time Hear the wind chime And wake up to find I’m not in a dream But I watch them float And heaven’s a light That’s streams through the window On a bed of clouds In a blanket haze I’ll pinch myself Make it all just go away In a matter of time Hear the wind chime And wake up We’re all lost In a vapor scene And no one knows The shadow they’re casting” To the people that made this song cool, thank you: @buffalobisonbuffalo : back up vocals @iamtheeggman_100 bass @tom.peart drums @lomo5150 engineering, mixing, synth, percussion @mrmaster3000 mastering Andrew Armerding: bass +guitar Big thank you to @kayleedaughertymusic for taking magical footage for this mini music vid @jenna_lee_poorthing song writing, vocals, guitar

The next episode in our album series is… Track 2: Minute Hand The title of our debut LP “Time Will Get Away” is taken from a lyric in this song. Upon reflection, a few themes recur throughout the album, one of them being TIME: how it shifts things (for better + for worse), how it slips, and how we evolve within it. I play off the proverb: “There is a time for everything.” It contains a hopeful kind of sadness. Longing and grief. Crafty perseverance meets inevitable change. The fight against and for acceptance. One of my favorite songs to perform live! There’s something special about the way @tom.peart plays the drums on this song. The steady thump and the pulse of a heartbeat. And it wouldn’t be the same without @buffalobisonbuffalo singing beautiful harmonies. This song was mixed and engineered by @lomo5150 at his home studio. Most of the album was recorded live as a band and really retains that feeling.

This is the first of a series of posts I’ll be sharing—going through our debut album one song at a time.  Let’s start with track 1! Slide 👉🏻through to see: New Year: This song is unique because it was recorded before I formed the band. I’d been taking guitar lessons with @ianown @mozepics for quite a few years, and that eventually led to songwriting classes. I’ve written songs since I was a teenager, but I stopped for a long time, and Ian helped bring them out of me again. He encouraged me to start recording, so I bought my first audio interface and began making demos in my bedroom.  I wanted to put New Year out as my first single, so I asked Ian to produce it.  He helped me set everything into motion. We recorded our own parts at home and sent it off to @lomo5150 for drums.  Ian did the initial mixing, and we asked @jordankrimston to button up the final mix.  Despite the fact that I didn’t have a band when this song was recorded,  it’s inseparable from the larger body of work.  New Year is so special to me and really sets the tone lyrically for a particular season of my life that most of these songs are about. Recording this song was the genesis of all that would come to pass later: starting Poor Thing, playing unforgettable shows, and recording our first album!

One Night at The Casbah: At the Heart of San Diego’s Scene for @clashmagazine ! I did a scene report in San Diego for Clash Magazine at the incredible @casbahsandiego . I spoke with @poorthing.band on the night of their album launch, as well as @please_askforpaul who supported on the night!

Our album: “Time Will Get Away” is now available to stream! 🌸a few years ago, the world as I knew it turned upside down. I was grappling with all the changes. As a way to process the spectrum of feelings and experiences I was having, I wrote a bunch of songs. I didn’t set out to write an album, but I found myself with collection of tunes that I was proud of that captured a moment in time. I wish I could go back and tell her - all this pain will be worth it. Sometimes what grows in the after math is all the more beautiful. 🌸I’m overwhelmed with gratitude for all the wonderful people that made this project possible! We did it!! 🌸Credits for the album: Andrew Armerding: guitar, bass, additional production @iamtheeggman_100 : bass @tom.peart : drums @lomo5150 : engineering, mixing + additional percussion, synth, guitar.
