If you're in Hamilton, come out to my third Trinket Trance Presents showcase tomorrow night at The Bright Room! It's a completely stacked bill of amazing bands and I'm handling drum duties in Ula Lume (it'll be our last local show of 2025).

I've got my second Trinket Trance Presents show happening on August 15th with three excellent femme-forward indie rock acts! Very excited to see Small Orbit again and Jocelyn June & The Bugs for the first time. Jump Coven have been rehearsing our butts off to get something special ready for you all.

Thanks for this really thoughtful review, @fringesofsound.bsky.social! I was actually trying to convince myself to not add any drum/percussion elements to this album the whole time, but the drummer in me lost that battle lol.

Thanks so much for including me among all those great artists, Simon! I clearly need to check in here more often (hence the delayed share).

My Trinket Trance Top 50 playlist has migrated over to YouTube, where smaller artists still receive a measure of revenue for their efforts (however paltry, something is better than nothing). Check it out for the best music happening right now in any genre! www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

If you're in the Hamilton area and around on Saturday night, come out to see me exercise some new parent demons on the drum kit for @waxmannequin.bsky.social! Friendly faces and strangers equally welcome.

I'm better at sharing other people's music than I am at promoting my own. To that point, here's an ongoing playlist of my favourite Canadian Indie Music released in 2024. Suggestions are always welcomed and encouraged. Our country is so rich in talent. open.spotify.com/playlist/2Lf...

Who are 5 artists you have in heavy rotation right meow? WILLOW Doechii Beams Mannequin Pussy Sarah Good and the Bads

If you make playlists, please share them with me - I'm always looking for recommendations and can't help but obsess over hearing as much new music as possible. And it's always fascinating to absorb the tastes of other friendly music lovers.

I'm here to talk about and share art that resonates with me, sonic, cinematic, written or otherwise.
