Still some tickets available for the @sleaford_mods show that @problems_music is opening up at @lh_schubas !!! So stoked to be back at Lincoln hall and playing with the legends!! Thanks to @chirpradio for the love. Grab tickets before this sells out!! We are less than a week out!!
Thank you Brooklyn. @elsewherespace hall was sold out and the show was amazing. It’s always very fucking emotional for me coming here and playing. Thank you to the ultimate homies in @getdown_services for letting me open for them on this run. My life is truly full of blessings.
My record “PROBLEMS GETTING HARD” is out on 12” lp and streaming everywhere except for @spotify because when you support Spotify you support the oligarchs that are destroying everything I love

Thanks to my agent Joseph @clementinebooking for making the trek from Atlanta and for the @breakfast_records crew for making the trek from Bristol. Me and Getdown Services keep our teams tight and it’s rad to have family in the house at big shows like this.
I am still looking for local acts in Colorado Springs, Fort Collins, Missoula, Spokane, Long Beach, Vegas, and Marfa. I need local bands from those cities that can help with promo and bring a few people out to the show. If that’s you, tag yourself in the comments. If you know someone, send them this post or tag them in the comments. Radicals welcome. Bootlickers need not apply. #tourlife #touringmusician #musiciansofınstagram #musiclife #openingact

My @subvertworld page is now live. They are trying to bring money and control back to artists and I’m here for it. Check the link in my bio. #musician #touringmusician #musiciansofinstagram #subvert #musiclife
Such an honor to be supporting @sleaford_mods at @lh_schubas !! Lots of the shows are selling out so get tickets now. This could be the last show anyone ever plays in Chicago ever.
@problems_music is looking for LOCAL (not regional) support in some places. Please reach out to me if you’re a band or artist that can play or directly link me with someone in these places. Tag people in this post. Please don’t just write me with suggestions tho it’s too much work.

I’m still not exactly sure how me and @anandwildermusic became friends. I think @walterfancourt showed him a video of mine or visa versa - but we definitely clicked.
he didn’t know the themes of my new record were weight loss and working out, etc. when he wrote the lyrics to this song… Very serendipitous. We have a really similar sense of humor, we were both in bands in the 00’s that provided people with a great backdrop for a really profound psychedelic drug experience, and Anand’s sheer love for music continues to inspire me. He’s a lifer like me. I learn a lot from him just goofing around. He is making the best music of his career right now, so go check his new album out and keep listening to our awesome collaboration “Personal Trainer” available on 12 inch LP via @therecordmachine and streaming everywhere except for @spotify because Spotify takes your money and invested in AI weapons of war.
sorry for the funky zoom on the video in this carousel… they are multibillion dollar company but Instagram just hasn’t quite cracked the code on making carousels with different aspect ratios. Maybe a few billion more dollars I’ll get them there. #touringmusician #tourlife #musiciansofinstagram #bandlife
Another really amazing collab on “PROBLEMS GETTING HARD” was “Personal Trainer”. This song started with its gonzo horn loop and bass line that mirrored it with some octave play. I was struggling to write lyrics so I put a video clip of it on my Instagram and said “I am going to trash this song unless someone wants to write vocals to it” which was not an empty threat. Luckily @anandwildermusic rescued it and brought it back to life.
I’ll post again tomorrow with another clip and some background on how me and Anand became friends.
“PROBLEMS GETTING HARD” is streaming everywhere except Spotify and is available on 12” lp via The Record Machine.
Nice and quick, fun and rad!
Fresh merch for ya at shows!
@darren_keen is always a vibe and these shirts rock.
Go listen to @problems_music
