Back in 2018 when my last album was released, it was actually two records in one package. The first disc featured all of the original songs and the second was a collection of covers and remixes of those songs by other artists, including Tiffany, The Dandy Warhols, Jarryd James, and a bunch of other super talented folks.
My music distributor at the time did something dumb where all of those other people’s songs only got attributed to me when things went public-facing at stores and on streaming services and, because of that, those tracks have never been visible under any of the other artist’s names, anywhere the record appeared.
Long, incredibly expensive, annoying independent music story short: I got a record deal last year and Kill Rock Stars will be re-releasing the My Movie Star covers and remixes next month! They will FINALLY be in the right place on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, TIDAL, Deezer, and everywhere else.
Nature is healing. 🖤

We (predictably) lost the Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album nomination to Barbra Streisand, John Legend, Elvis Costello, Michael Bublé, and Andrea Bocelli, but holy hell it was fun to see our names on that ballot.
I also cannot stress enough how much I loved working with (and then #Grammy campaigning with!!!!) my childhood pop hero Tiffany. Her beautiful rendition of Big City Now from My Movie Star ultimately lost the Best Pop Solo Performance nom to Beyoncé, Billie Eilish, Ariana Grande, Lizzo and Taylor Swift, but I’m #TeamTiff FOREVER.
Working across genres on My Movie Star was really exciting, and while Scott Simpson’s cover of Underground was knocked out of the Best Country Solo Performance race by Willie Nelson, Blake Shelton, Ashley McBryde, Tyler Childers, and Tanya Tucker in round 2, infiltrating the Country ballot was a trip.
Congrats, everybody! I’ll see you at the big show in LA on January 26th. 🤘🏆
