On June 1, we’re welcoming Talulah Paisley to DW! At 8 PM
From New York! Talulah Paisley @talulahpaisley will bring their unique, experimental brand of pop. Described by the New York Times as “unselfconsciously whimsical... unapologetically earnest,” come on over and get you some!
Also playing is Wilson Ridge @wilson.ridge.stl ! An indie/ folk band singing songs of climate change, being gay in Missouri, doing laundry, love, televangelists, etc, doing in a lovely appealing way.
Finally, fish home @fish.h0me brings home the bacon! A rock band! Zach, Madi and Kobe, bringing you some tunes we know you’ll love.

We DID NOT release terrible AI-generated Christmas nonsense today. Do not listen to it. I have no clue how to get it off our Spotify page, but I will figure that out.
RIP Spotify, this ship is going down fast.
It's been a week since the Big Blue Blanket release party, and we are floored with how much love has been coming our way. Thank you for listening to the record!!!

SAPPY TIME!!! I made the boys take a group photo and it turned out really stinking cute.
It's crazy that I got to make an album with three of my best friends. I am so so so grateful to Ian for his vision with production, Isaac for always having confidence with where the song needs to go next, Chris for his one-of-one way of playing the guitar. Creating with these guys is an absolute dream come true.
Listen to the record! Come celebrate tomorrow!
RELEASE SHOW! Two weeks from today! At The Nest (dm for addy).
