BEHOLD 🐍 “RATTLESNAKE” || perhaps the funkiest song we’ve ever made, it was inspired by a recounting of a 30-mile bike ride I took with my mom, and seeing a massive rattlesnake lounging in the dappled forest sunlight. Observing the beautiful and serene being, i was faced with my own struggle to stay present due to chronic anxiety — the rattlesnake was a reminder stop and receive the gifts our planet offers us… “do you have the time to unwind?” -Kal 🪩 Link to full vid in bio! ENJOY!

Following a string of life-altering changes, series of self-reflection, and non-linear journey of healing, Kalmia wrote and self-published a poetry zine in 2016. What became of these poems has evolved and mutated into a world beyond their pages, and into musical, sonic form: the new Rubblebucket album. Year of the Banana is yours 10.18 via @egghuntrecords 🍌💛 Pre-save now at the link in our bio, we can’t wait for you to hear it.

Hello my rubblebuddies, Alex aka Tōth here. I miss you all very much! I come bearing big news/gifts: my third album ‘And The Voice Said’ is here!!! 🎉It was co-produced with @itsunclecarol who also sings all over the album and features @kimbramusic . Over the last 5 years in between making and touring two Rubblebucket albums with Kal & friends I was working on this new Tōth record behind the scenes. It’s a joyous and at times strange celebration of overcoming self-doubt and limiting self-beliefs. It has ecstatic trumpet playing and deep grooves, bops and a couple of sad songs. I think you will love. You can head to link in story/bio to check it out wherever you listen to/buy music. And on the topic of missing you my bandmate Allegra and I are heading on tour starting THIS Friday in DC!! Come sing and dance with us!!

Happy MLK day! How is everyone doing? We miss you! Drop a little note in the chat and say what your favorite color is today or what’s on your heart or how you’re resisting our DICK-tater 🍆🥔 or what’s keeping you going despite the really hard world out here. And now for a little 🚨RUBBLEBUCKET LORE ALERT! 🚨 I was looking through old photos yesterday and I found these from when I was working on the “year of the banana” album art. I thought you might enjoy seeing how many different iterations we did before we settled on the final cover…… pretty cool!! I can’t remember if we based the cover off of the lyrics of “moving without touching” or if it was the other way around, but either way check out how the amazing Haoyan Of America brought it all to life in our music video for that song. we re-created the album cover IRL in a studio and he used video effects & CGI to make it so that we would actually be bobbing on an ocean! A little known fact is that as we developed the song, the lyrics started out shadow puppets on the wall / in a white box / bobbing on the ocean” which then turned into “shadow puppets on the wall / when the light falls / moving to the edge of the dark / we grow apart.. “ and in verse 2 “ocean levels on the rise / my two eyes / this is so much emotion “ themes of isolation, loneliness, division and the liminal place where those become safety within oneself, hermit life, surrender to the tiny things about moments that make life wonderful. moving without touching at the time meant to me feeling a magnetism toward each other, but not being able to connect for whatever reason… ? Hard feelings can become blockage. So you go within yourself and find the compassion and connection there, cultivate it, and once you have it strong enough that allows you to connect outward. I’m thinking about that so much as we talk about building local communities, mutual aid, small acts of resistance that compound, keeping Love alive& taking care of each other in the face of this auth orit tarian crap-all situation we’re in. OK, I hope you have a little nice little day everyone. Keep up the good work loving ourselves and eachother. Sincerely, @grassfedkal

NEW TŌTH JAM!! Hi rubblebuddies, I @Tothtunes have a new album coming 2/27/26 co-produced by Caroline Rose and a new song out now called “Not Broken” !!! It arrives with a very heart-warming music video shot on Coney Island where I sing and dance with people, parrots, and snakes. I wrote the song as a message to my inner child: a response to my darkest feelings about life. I may not show it outwardly (especially in rubblebucket haha), but my default can be pretty dang negative. So I selfishly wrote a song that would hopefully help me feel a little better from time to time. ‘Please take me to my body / I wanna be somebody / And the voice said...you’re not broken...you’re just lost in emotions.’ Head over to my page for all the links. MISS YOU BABIES. MUCH LOVE TO YOU ALL. 🩵🩵🩵🩵🌈🎡🐍🦜 #newmusic #musicvideo #snakes #parrot #healing #indiemusic #jam #coneyisland #notbroken #andthevoicesaid #cosmic
