Got MJ Lenderman writing Jackson Browne songs. Could be big for the culture. www.youtube.com/watch?v=dEYJ...

Cool writeup by @missmollymary.bsky.social about a collection of songs I batched together onto a CD earlier this year. And a bit about CDs generally. www.ienjoymusic.net/routine-layu...

We went from one Twitter that was good to two Twitters that are both kinda bad but for opposite reasons.

My biography of Justin Townes Earle will be released on January 13th, 2026, the week after what would’ve been his 44th birthday. It’s called ‘What Do You Do When You’re Lonesome’ If you’d like to support a debut author, you can pre-order here: www.hbglibrary.com/titles/jonat...

Looks reeeeal nice PS I wrote a small piece in this.

After the Deluge zine Vol. 4: Bon Iver alive and in the world right now. ✨ afterthedeluge.bigcartel.com Discount: FLUME

Chris’s book is excellent! Some scenes I knew intimately and others I missed entirely in the moment. Made for a beautiful mix of nostalgia and education spanning my entire adult life, and a pretty definitive document on the commodification of coolness in indie music. Read it!

took my favourite photo of a fox last night:

Friendship have been important fixtures of the indie world for years, but with CAVEMAN WAKES UP, they've really and truly Arrived. I wrote about one of my favorite albums of the year:

Spent an hour with Jim-E Stack who produced the new Bon Iver record. Talked drums, remixes, track listings, Lorde's new record (which he also produced), LEGOS, and the King of the Hill reboot. Had a great time. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/b...

Believing that em dashes reveal LLM usage just reveals that you don't read.

I spoke with the excellent @alexrobertross.bsky.social about the newest Bon Iver record, SABLE, fABLE, which he reviewed for Pitchfork. He spoke from a cabin in the Canadian wilderness, so you know this was inspired. It's After the Deluge on the main podcast apps! 👏

Skenes with 10 Ks and 0 runs only to lose 1-0 to the Mariners is a nice little homage to Felix Hernandez 🫡

To all who celebrate.

Hi @boniverwi.bsky.social wanna come on a little podcast to talk about the new record? 🏀

if you don’t know the history of Dodger Stadium you can’t fully understand what unfolded today. thanks @chrislhayes.bsky.social for the opportunity to share it.

I popped into the 10/10 You’re Great podcasting nook on a recent trip to Seattle and yapped about Pup and The Dream is Over… and digestifs, and Coldplay and Cars (Part 1) and lots more. These guys allowed all of the Covid podcasts to come and go before offering up their own and it’s good and fun.

Snuck into the Pebble Beach Pro Am and as I walked through some trees a ball came bouncing up to my feet. I waited there and up strolled Bill Murray and Ray Romano who chatted and made space for Kenny G chip out.

Wrote this a couple of Friday the 13ths ago.

I’m making Vol. 4 of this zine. The main feature is on Bon Iver, but pitches can/should stray far from that… just need to live in the greater 2007-25 indie world. Short articles and/or art... paid. 😵‍💫 My social presence is trash, so please amplify if this is at all your thing!

What's the best band whose songs all sound the same? Mine:

What’s the best alternative to Pocket app in its most basic application?

A conversation with Chris Messina, who helped bottle up the songs and sounds on Bon Iver's 22, a Million and I,i... We talk about uprooting to Eau Claire, building out April Base, big-ass headphones, a bit of pop punk. Located at After the Deluge on your podcast app. 👏

Here's a conversation about Bon Iver's 2019 album I,i with a couple of Orcas Island locals. The highs are high and a bunch of moments jump way off the record, but [search After the Deluge on your pod app of choice].

Stumbled on quite the 2019 artifact.

Cleaning my inbox and @danozzi.bsky.social from 2.5 weeks ago really nailed something here.

Four emails form Home Depot requesting feedback on my recent purchase (a Gatorade).

Is this cover anything specific? Obviously iconic and great, but like is it anything besides rings and shadows w/ Stevie in the middle?

Totally fine to make fun of millennials but if you do it you shouldn’t be allowed to watch The Office or listen to Deftones.

New After the Deluge episode about Bon Iver's 22, a Million w/ @ianjgrant.com of the Jokermen podcast. The songs, the year 2016, The Ace Hotel, the days have no numbers...

went (hop a)long about one of my favorite albums of the past 10 years and maybe my lifetime www.stereogum.com/2306566/hop-...

I've made 4 seasons of a music podcast and half of 'em auditioned for Inside Llewyn Davis.

I waited for the right moment to hit play on this @titus-andronicus.bsky.social ep and then I savored the whole thing. Listen to it if you care about this record.

This is a fine product

I spoke with the excellent @markrichardson.bsky.social about Bon Iver, Bon Iver--which he reviewed for Pitchfork in 2011 just weeks after he became EIC. Also: fusing adult-contemporary & the avant-garde, earnestness, the midwest, Heath Ledger, Beth/Rest & a little story about almost giving it a 10.

I checked out the Juno soundtrack from my local library.

I was in the studio audience for Everybody’s Live tonight if you’re wondering who shouted YEAH when Randy Newman said he was about to play “Political Science.” Then after taping he played “Sail Away” and I cried lol

I often like hold music possibly in a Stockholm Syndrome type way.

Oops, it was actually @thetisburys.bsky.social.

Anyone got the @aplaceforowls.bsky.social post about how Kamala needs to "win these rural counties" but it's just the track listing of Bon Iver self-titled?

The Pitt said what if instead of nothing happening until the last episode of the show, stuff just happened endlessly the whole entire time? Good strategy.
