This original is one of my favorites to play and always makes me laugh. “Fallen in.” Written about feeling trapped in LA in a moment. #singersongwriter #writingcommunity #writersofinstagram #original #acoustic #guitar #song #oakland #losangeles #eastla
“Naked as we Came” and “Murder in the City” Covers #acoustic #guitar #acousticguitar #singersongwriter #writersofinstagram #writingcommunity #writewordswithme
Feeling contemplative this morning, and my mama told me already this week that my birthday on Friday is also the full moon. More eminently, I’m moving out of my little studio in Oakland, so this will be the last track I record here for a while. I wrote this song about two women, one alive and one who has passed. “Dotted Line” 💚💚 #singersongwriter #writersofinstagram #writingcommunity #acoustic #guitar #vocals #original #oakland #song #songsfromaroom

Little Art Walk this morning has me reflecting big time on changes happening in Oakland. First and foremost, I need to find new housing ASAP and any leads on that are appreciated. Secondly, @communitydemocracyaction is on pause at the moment; the good people at the Community Democracy Project are going to wait for the next election cycle to make a big push on the People’s’ Budget Oakland initiative. And finally, so much change in the Art and landscape of these streets as well. The 3400 Walgreens on Tele just closed this month and good riddance, the outside walls are already covered in beautiful pieces. And across the street, the legendary @tasteofdenmark closed its doors after almost 100 years. While the Art outside this shop will live on, it’s sad to see a neighborhood spot with a good cup of coffee shutter up. Had a conversation with an ancient local this morning who looked almost as old as the bakery, and we both got sad as soon as gentrification came up. Oh Oakland, how I love you and your painted walls and magnificent constant changes. Swipe to the end to see me practicing singing an old cover, “upward over the mountain” by @ironandwinetour in front of the graffiti wall in my apartment. Hoping y’all are enjoying fall and getting some art and walks in too 💜💜💚💚
