Time well spent with my talented pals and my sweet partner ….. Italian night @vaughansloungenola where not only do they play insane music. They also feed everyone yummy Italian cuisine…. No charge. Donations and tips encouraged and appreciated. Hanoun was one of the best shows I’ve ever been to. It’s jasmine and passionflower season. #magicprobablymaybe
Busked for the first time for a cutie song (forgot the words). Seein some amazing live music per usual. Working as a stylist, duh. Going on dates, checking out gardens, having fun and dancing with friends to Cumbia. Just doin the thang. About to do some admin work and hit up decompression Monday at bywater bakery because MORE JAZZ . And yes I made it into the background of a massive @eli.pillaert piece and I couldn’t be more proud
Get yer cute lil tooshes in my DMs and book with me, especially for this coming Wednesday. I’m looking for a few models (color , men’s cut, curly, straight , whatever!!!) to show my skills to an amazing stylist in uptown. I’ll shampoo you, pamper you, and wont charge much!! I love you thanks
I have two homes now friends. Shreveport with babies and my personal practices (aka minding my biz, taking care of myself, practicing music, avoiding the toxic trap of small town Shreveport where, yes, some folks here really do want to dim the light of brilliant people ew ) and working the best job that ole Shreve has to offer (HONEYCOMB SALON!!!) 🍯 this place has my oldest friends and my fam who love me so much. But I have a home in New Orleans too…. this post is a TINY snippet of the rich life I have there… surrounded by the most talented people I’ve ever known….. absolutely not pictured are the two or maybe even three parades we marched in just two weeks ago. I’ve worked my entire adult years to have a life this rich. I earned it. I found my people AND it’s made me a better mama. This and more without a sip of alcohol and sober from nearly every dang thang (still have an SSRI to taper off of TMI) Forty years old and I’ve never felt more youthful and alive. So glad to have finally found a good balance and to have a partner and friends who have helped me be brave enough to make this nearly double-life leap. Thanks yall!
Coming down to NOLA! Book your haircuts!! Book some hang out times wit me!! Let’s sing! Let’s play! I love you New Orleans . Also can’t wait to see this angel bae @morris_anisette

Happy winter solstice everyone ! Sagittarius season was awesome, super sad to see it go away but the goat must climb the mountain where the centaur can’t proceed, says wizard boyfriend Sam. Thankful to be alive. Thankful to have seen so many sweet faces! Thankful for reunions and music and masks and mask-making and mix-tape making and music making and alllll the magic that happened this month. As the longest night approaches, so do the longer days. Time to prepare for carnival and give this next year of the FIRE HORSE a winning chance. Ready for the genocide to end and the ice raids to stop. On this last advent Sunday, on this winter solstice, on this here end of birthday season, my prayer is peace and equality, forgiveness and new opportunities for the working class across the globe. My prayer is for all children to grow in safety and in love. Love you
Salem, Cambridge, MIT campus to watch @sashafiercepeterson dance her heart out, New England fall foliage, studio time and book making with rosemary (Sam’s mama). The pic with the shoes is a painting by @chelsealebeauhueter . Crazy realism. Got to see Sam busk for the first time ever! Super talented family those LeBeaus! Spent much quality time with Sam’s fam and closest friends and I must say, I sure did have fun and felt real loved. And I like kicking leaves duh, who doesn’t
Tuesday Oct 7 at 717 Crockett! 4-9! If you haven’t noticed, I make music but I don’t play shows much at all and I don’t release my music on platforms. I’ve released songs within art exhibits since 2011? I dunno. Every year or two, you’ll hear something I’ve created within the confines of specific time and space and then it disappears forever, staying only in the ether and memories of those present. Tuesday is your only chance to experience the “telephone” show where four artists played a game of telephone over the course of two years with their pieces….. make a piece, call the next artist, describe it, try to make what you think they described, call the next artist and describe that. Voila. I wrote a song for each series. Four songs. One night. Four phones. Come and hear !
This Saturday September 27 6-9 pm 717 Crockett street and October 7, 6-9pm at same location. • ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
“Telephone is an exhibition about
human communication and the fidelity (or infidelity) of
ideas as imagery. Inspired by the children’s game ‘telephone’ we carried out a visual
experiment. Four artists began by making one original piece known as the” original message.”
In turn, each artist created a new work based only on a phone call description of the one before it. The final pieces are not exact copies but rather a series of interpretations, each one adding a new layer of meaning, misunderstanding, mystery.
Sound artist tiny alive built four sound installations in response to the final pieces of visual art in the telephone chain. The result is an auditory experience through
the receivers of analog telephones. Each song was written specially for each series of paintings.
Sound artist der liegesessel recorded Telesessions, a series of works on modular synthesiser examining the concept of entropy.
