The New School is now a place where students cannot major in History, Anthropology, Sociology, Global Policy & International Affairs, Global Studies, Urban Studies, or Environmental Studies. And more pauses, closures, and mergers coming down the pike this week. The future is uncertain.

Great show at Union Pool last weekend opening for a sold out Orcutt Shelley Miller. You can catch my set again this Saturday 11/15 at PIT in Williamsburg, Brooklyn where I’m playing with Nathan O’Flynn-Pruitt and the Danny Arakaki/Tom Malach duo (Garcia Peoples). Doors at 630.

Really cool how we don’t need or want this and no one asked for it. This will be the straw that turns me completely back to asking them to turn in work on printed paper which will annoy them (but has always been my wish)

I am really looking forward to this show with my old Citay bandmate, Ezra Feinberg, and Zach Layton. Bob Bannister will join me on guitar. The Luncheonette in Greenpoint is not long for this world, so it's a chance to soak up this special community. Dress warmly!

The New York folk artist's debut is a spooky psych-folk seance that's cosmic, yet earthbound.

Thanks, Heathen Disco! "She carves a sizable swath of song out of an instrument that sounds as if it's 16 feet long, weighs 300 pounds,... and requires the blade of a hatchet for a pick. ...The bicoastal bliss of somebody who's seen something instills this whole record with a peaceful confidence."
