5 weeks ago was the unreleased live show of my debut album, “Songs I Wrote Sung By People I Love”. My initial vision was a simple garage band style show, people sitting on the floor, and hootin’ and hollerin’ with whoever showed up. Instead I was met with a room packed with overflowing hearts, echoing laughter, and hugs all around. Thank you’s and flowers to: The musicians that were behind me that night, as they pushed me to breathe life into this project and finally pull the trigger on 7 years of poetry. Forever blessed to have you all as friends and to know you in this lifetime. Jorry and Ross, for providing stage lighting, sound, and videography. The most wonderful and unexpected surprise, as I was only going to have one speaker and RGB lights rotating through a colour wheel LOL. @patrickhenson_ , for surprise capturing the show on film, because if not for you, no pics and it didn’t happen. @thewell.studios , for allowing me to use their beautiful venue. Protect Vancouver Arts and small venues fr. Everyone in the room that showed up that night deserves the biggest bouquet, as when love was given out, it was also received, held, then reciprocated. There are delays to the album as I have chosen to spend more time with family. I’m happy to say it will be released on July 11, so that you can enjoy it with a Slurpee on 7/11 Day. See y’all in a bit when I slowly introduce the people I love who participated in this project. The April showers have brought me May flowers, as I hope it will do the same for you. And if you don’t want May flowers, I wish you endless swag.

How to rave? Step 1: Free your mind. Step 2: Drop all expectations Step 3: Exist in the dancefloor. Step 4: Embrace what arises with curiosity and openness. Rave Buddy System style with an all night back to back where the DJs explore the more eccentric corners of their crates playing deep, peculiar and boundary crossing selections they would not otherwise play at more mainstream events. Expect twists and turns, curveballs and shifting sonic palates all in service of dance, connection, and collective joy! Hosted by @thewell.studios @lordloubbit 1/4 of @gas.gbln and member of @theinitiativeyvr - Lord Loubbit takes influence from all forms of sound design and weaves an intricate web of atmosphere and emotions for the dancefloor. Hypnotic with a focus on subverting rhythmic expectations, the surprises never end. @yeslucci An ear for the subversive, Vancouver-based DJ Lucci is a dynamic selector, known for crafting moments of collective resonance across diverse dance floors. Her eclectic sound reflects her lived experience as a queer femme of Filipino-Italian heritage, drawing from a range of influences to weave stories that are entrancing, emotive, and always dance-oriented. @djvioletnoise Bringing breakbeat, electro, and psytech sounds, VioletNoise is an experimental artist, livestreamer, and cofounder of the Buddy System party series.

Burn baby burn. The loss of a house. The loss of a child. I just feel so spoiled. Spoiled with the opportunities to grieve. Spoiled with challenges to overcome in sobriety. Spoiled with the cathartic cause for celebration. Celebrating the human condition of tragedy and recovery through art. Come celebrate with me. October 24th Enter the dark ruminations of what are some are calling 'the long dark' or the end times. But all is not lost! There is still 80's optimism and indulgence! Pizza delivery on the eve of Destruction! And of course NEON! If your already spoiled or need some spoiling, come get rotten and ridiculous. Throw on a half baked costume and cut some rug around some cut up collage art and get weird. Link in the Bio.
