Splits and EPs don’t usually make it into end of year conversations (for good or for ill), but here’s a reminder that we put out a very good split with @iambirthdaydad.bsky.social this year! aplaceforowls.bandcamp.com/album/my-fri...

sup cielo azule I am excited for you all to hear LP2 next year

one of my favorite non traditional christmas songs, from the incredibly talented @iambirthdaydad.bsky.social music.apple.com/us/album/sat...

I make monthly playlists to boost Indie Artists. Here is the November one! Spotify link below, Apple is in next comment. I try to keep the list around an hour each month and all songs are from 2025. Give these bands some love, listens mean everything! open.spotify.com/playlist/6CA...

I have once again spontaneously dropped a demo on bandcamp – another set of covers by fellow DIY / independent artists: @iambirthdaydad.bsky.social, Penelope Scott, @pacingmusic.bsky.social, ivri, @knifebabe.bsky.social, + @friendsinreallife.bsky.social. briannacarmel.bandcamp.com/album/diy4di...

I can’t wait for new @brosaleigh.bsky.social music, they are one of my favorite artists making music right now. I still spin “In the Garden, By the Weeds” all the time

💙 it keeps me going knowing people appreciate my dumb little songs and still care

hi. @aplaceforowls.bsky.social and I have released a split 12” with etched b-side called “My Friends Were Here”. this split was a long time in the making. they covered “TV Dinner” (best thing I’ve ever heard) and I covered “Do I Feel At Home Here?”. Plus a new original song from each of us.

new @iambirthdaydad.bsky.social x @aplaceforowls.bsky.social is great, Btw

Shocked was an understatement when @iambirthdaydad.bsky.social asked me to play drums for him on this and also doing @aplaceforowls.bsky.social cover was icing on the cake. Couldn’t be more proud to be even a small part of this release. Love y’all!
