@fcommanders.bsky.social are headed to Europe for the first time in 4 weeks, playing 18 shows across 6 countries! Can’t wait; see you new friends very soon!

Congrats to @denimclature.bsky.social on the release of the new Passenger Pigeon album! Get it!

@fcommanders.bsky.social are playing Reggie’s in Chicago this Friday, 4/10!

Please join us this evening at 6:30 PDT to listen to Another New Low for the first time together!

ONE-STEP CLOSE-UP wasn’t a single from ADULT CHILD, but it’s been cool to hear from people over the last 9 months that it connects for them! 1/3

@fcommanders.bsky.social are playing TN Brew Works in Nashville tonight, 4/4! Only hometown show of 2026! 7 PM, see you there! 🌿🌿🌿

Felt like singing this one! Springtime seems to bring me back to my solo work. My ADULT CHILD album was written, recorded, and released across various Spring seasons. Here’s the second verse of FIRSTBORN with a harmony that isn’t on the album, but I was in the mood for it this time around!

I’m never kidding about R&B, tracking vocals, or Mariah. Fun fact about me: my Jazzmaster is named Mariah ✨

Hey friends! This time last year, when I was just starting to release work from my ADULT CHILD album, I had an essay published in Atwood Magazine as part of their Women's History Month Series. 1/4

New pedal! Ballou sent me this GCI Crimson Cock pedal for my birthday so I’m checking it out with my live rigs for @fcommanders.bsky.social! When activated, it seems to boost and brighten the mids, and when set to BUGAWK mode, there’s a noticeable beef / crisis that happens - which of course I love.

Thrilled to share this updated schedule for the FIRST EVER EUROPEAN TOUR FOR Friendship Commanders! May is so soon! 🌿🎉🌿

It’s ’speak or be spoken for.’ I choose the former. See you at the shows!

Hello, beautiful home state! Playing the Atlantic in Gainesville with Friendship Commanders tonight 2/22! Feels good to be back. 🖤

Some words from us in this time of near speechlessness, plus some things we also want to add: -we are acutely aware that this administration’s actions impact Black, Brown, Indigenous, LGBTQIA+, Disabled and other marginalized groups the most. 1/

FIRST EVER EUROPEAN TOUR! We’ve been working toward this goal for years, so happy to finally share it. See you in May and June, friends! 🌿🌿🌿

Dance with me.

New shows added to the upcoming @fcommanders.bsky.social dates! Miami and Chicago, here we come!

10 years of @fcommanders.bsky.social & our first album, DAVE! I’m the zero nostalgia member of FC, but I’m so proud of all we’ve done. Enjoy!

Here’s your somewhat regular reminder that when interacting with or reviewing work made by a woman, it’s about the work, not the woman. Reviewing the woman is incorrect. Almost everyone on Goodreads needs to hear this.

Hi. In Utero was recorded at Pachyderm in Minnesota in 1993. Surfer Rosa was recorded at Q Division in Massachusetts in 1987. Albini opened Electrical Audio in Illinois in 1997. Therefore, In Utero & Surfer Rosa were not recorded at Electrical Audio. Recorded by Steve, yes, but not there.

This song floated into my head the other day. It was originally called WINTER SONG because I wrote it in January (mentioned in the first line). When I recorded it years later, I changed the name to MAYBE I’LL FLY INSTEAD, which sounds lovely and light, but it’s actually a fairly heavy song.

Vocals only clip! I almost never take footage of myself tracking vocals, but this song was a different thing. Here’s 20-something seconds of me recording vox for DEAD & DISCARDED GIRLS by @fcommanders.bsky.social with the unmastered stems! Enjoy!

@jerryroe.bsky.social kicked all the ass last year. Behold the insane list! Proud to be part of it 💎

Shaking things up! This build is interesting for me, the notable differences from my typical guitars being: -The body is chambered -These are Seymour Duncan pickups -Is it possible I’ve never had a guitar without dots on the fretboard?

Happy new year! Looking forward to seeing many folx on the road in 2026!

Thrilled to see my album ADULT CHILD here with so many other rad 2025 releases! If you haven't heard ADULT CHILD, it's my 4th solo album, released on 6/13 of this year; written & produced by me, mixed by Kurt Ballou! If you love it, please consider giving it a vote! nodepression.org/vote-for-you...

BEAR has been out for one week! Thank you for listening! What are your favorite tracks so far? We’ll go first! Buick: IMPERFECT because it’s so true, and because it has a rawness that I love. Also DEAD & DISCARDED GIRLS because it still takes me out.
