We were going to have friends over for dinner but they had to bail (sickness) and I had already put this pot roast in when they let us know! It turned out so good

People always say “Maxwell’s Silver Hammer” sucks, but there does not exist a worse take. It’s a serial killer story set to psychedelic circus music and it reveals the true, deeply disturbing nature of The Beatles

This record changed my life. The guitar solos by Robert Fripp and the drumming by Phil Collins really make it

She’s five!

3.5 full sketchbooks into my renewed drawing practice and I think I am figuring out what gauge pen I like best

A record as beautiful as it is groundbreaking

It used to take an entire legacy news corporation to wag the dog. Now if you can make one viral reel that’s racist enough, you dictate domestic and foreign policy

When some of modern pop music’s godfathers reveal their folk roots

I can’t get enough of this thing. My love of records has been invigorated

Everytime I listen to David Bowie I’m shaken to the core. He was an antennae if there ever was one, channeling universality - his music welcomes in those who feel lost and sees those who feel unseen. His work has changed my life

New MF music video

Because of the way the world feels right now, every time I’m enjoying something I think about how it might not be available in the future. This helps me enjoy things even more

There’s an infinite amount of music and it makes me eternally grateful that anyone would choose to play mine/ours. Thanks everyone

The MF live 2025 comp is up - like opening one gift on Christmas Eve. This one is short and sweet, 8 of our best takes from our shows this year Thanks @andrewweathers.bsky.social for the mastering

Thank you for listening to this @bugfajita.bsky.social - I think this is a special take of this song

Thank you so much @thomasrbritt.bsky.social

Tom Verlaine is a hero to me and I am celebrating with this perfect solo record. More in the alt text

Some of our music ended up in this Cannondale mountain biking promotional video

Take that, everyone. An album I played on made it on a list after all. MFEE by @themodernfolk.bandcamp.com was selected by @bandcamp.com as one of their Best Experimental Albums of 2025. Congrats J, love you lots.

WOW - MFEE made @bandcamp.com best experimental albums of 2025. On a list with Kevin Drumm, Lori Goldston and Wednesday Knudsen. I’m completely blown away

Shenandoah live/acoustic at Speck’s Records

Bandcamp Friday - I am most proud of these two albums, one is my best solo-ish work, one is our best full-band work. Buy one or both at the link in my profile Find detailed descriptions in the alt text

RIP Steve Cropper. A guitar player for the ages. One of his lesser-known credits is a bit of guitar on Big Star’s Third/Sister Lovers. Apparently Alex Chilton’s weird druggy depressive vibes scared him and he stood outside the room to record his licks

I used to read constantly. Now I just don’t have the time or space in my life for it. Maybe I will again some day. I didn’t know it at the time but I was front-loading my life with literature. Glad I did!

Record binge, Admiral Analog, Shepherdstown, WV

We checked out Crystal Grottoes cave near Sharpsburg, MD. It’s been decades since I’ve been in a cave, I used to explore wild caves as a kid/teen. Since the Appalachians are made of limestone, there are many caves around where I grew up. A fair amount have been turned into tourist spots like this

The absolute best. More in the alt-text

RIP Jimmy Cliff. The Harder They Come is one of my favorite movies. My dad showed it to me when I was a kid and of course I instantly fell in love with the music and the outlaw story, it’s a perfect movie. JC’s singing is unparalleled, heavy reggae soul. He has now crossed the last river

Pepp-pep

Shut up squares weed has no downsides

I posted our recent album MF on reddit for a lark. The sole comment: "Ok...well...for me....the recording quality is lacking, I found it a little quiet and lacking any moments or dynamics. Sorry."

Bargecamp has purchased the three largest AI/music/streaming companies. Now the only album you can stream anywhere is SECRET JAMS by @themodernfolk.bandcamp.com

Pure Moods is a pure mood. More in alt text

My wife bought a CD player

Our last album, MF, is a collage of takes and improvs recorded live to 4-track cassette at band practice. In the spring we are releasing a mirror version, the material we were practicing here, but recorded in a studio. Called MF BAND

I made a bandcamp playlist of good music I purchased in the latter half of 2025

WHOAAAOOHOO-AHHYEAYEAH-AHYEAH-AHHAYEAAAAEAEAH

I've long felt that there's no reason to hate on any member of The Dead, it's a vast tapestry and why not just embrace it all. But I feel like this goes hardest for Donna Jean, who I will always think of as "the Christian Linda Sharrock" and like all women in rock was hated mostly due to misogyny

RIP Donna Jean

“Krautrock” was very informed by a generation of young people reckoning with the atrocities their parents committed or at least didn’t actively resist

Every time I play a guitar show I see the other acts and think fuck I cannot play guitar then I get up and play guitar because who cares?

I’m psyched to contribute MF music for the 1st release on @bargecamp.bsky.social - the absolute most alternative of streaming alternatives. SECRET JAMS is Bargecamp exclusive and features some out of character punk/power-pop/no wave, a banjo excursion, and some long jams. FREE! www.bargecamp.com

I’m proud that MF is the inaugural release on @bargecamp.bsky.social - the absolute most alternative of streaming alternatives. Check out what’s going on here! Weird songs and jams from the band
