Opening for @sawyerfrdrx at @citywinerynyc last night was a real treat and I’m so grateful to be able to do what I do. Someone came up to me after the show and said “I know how hard it is starting out” and handed me a fifty dollar bill. I’m still speechless. The amount of kindness and encouragement one is shown outweighs the struggle by a country mile. Thank you for all of your constant encouragement. Tonight I’m happy to be at @arrowood_outpost 8:30 - 10:30 Photo Credit: @ninaxcarbone

It’s my birthday again. It happens every year and every year we continuously grow older, we become strangers to ourselves and get to know the new kid at the drivers seat. It takes a year to get to know someone. The minute we know who we are we shed the skin, erase the past, and are reborn into eternity, again and again we emerge new and polished, the dents, marks, and scars of yesteryear hiding away in the shadows of memory. The relentless passing of time is something to mourn and something to celebrate. It’s bitter sweet and black and white and cruel and kind and throughly a good thing. All we have is the future and tomorrow becomes yesterday and yesterday becomes nothing. There ain’t much in the past worth living for. Every dream, shred of hope, vision, wish, and desire lives someplace in the stars, somewhere down the road of time beyond the minute we find ourselves trapped in. Where I come from it’s customary for the birthday person to give some sort of blessing to their friends and loved ones so I guess I really just want to wish you all a happy day amongst the cold clouds, a slow day of moments that bring you joy, a sun that warms your windowsills and hearts and a wish that comes true amongst your future birthdays, your future ticks of the clocks that reside on the walls of a house you don’t live in yet, in a room that holds someone else’s pillow, in an apartment whose sink doesn’t carry your dirty dishes just yet. I hope your future is as whole, promising, and kind as the day is new, rough, and cold. May you find refuge in everything there is to look forward to, everything you know about and all the surprises too, the friends that will love you, the beautiful strangers you haven’t met yet, and the best days that remain shrouded in mystery and womb. 📷 @k4itybug
