Huge thanks to KEXP DJ Marco Collins (you know…the dude who put Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Beck, Weezer, Garbage, Death Cab for Cutie, and other bands you may have heard of, on the map) for naming me one of his 20 favorite queer artists from the Pacific Northwest!

Check out Marco’s full list in American Songwriter Magazine HERE.

Thank you to everyone who has been streaming the single or pre-ordered the EP since yesterday when Kill Rock Stars announced it! I see you, gays.

And huge thanks to JD Samson, MAN ON MAN, Xiu Xiu, Bright Light Bright Light, and Plack Blague for being part of this with me. I love every single one of you.

Also I used to hide Faith No More CDs in my pants at the back of Camelot Music in the mall because I had to smuggle secular music into our house as a kid, so to have Roddy Bottum on this thing is wild.

If you find my album at a big box store, you absolutely have my permission to put that ish in your underwear and walk out. 🖤

Thanks to the Recording Academy / GRAMMYs for including me in this story about Portland’s political music scene alongside so many PDX-based artists I love and respect.

“Portland Goes Harder: How PDX’s Disparate, Diverse Music Scene Has Coalesced Around Progressive Politics” is out now.
