I will release my first song in a long while tonight at midnight. It’s called “Other Right Hand of the Lord”. We’ve all worked very hard on it and I couldn’t possibly express all my gratitude to everyone involved here.

But to everyone involved in making this happen: from the bottom of my heart of coal, thank you 🖤

Alright y’all, the cat’s outta the bag — starting a week from today (i.e., on Jan. 2, 2025), I’ll be doing a weekly show on !

Every Thursday from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. central, I’ll be flooding the virtual airwaves with a “mix so good it’ll make you sick.”

There’ll be plenty of semi-obscure 90s power pop in the mix (because of course there will), and lots of My Bloody Valentine and bands that sound like My Bloody Valentine. But you’ll also find everything from 70s post punk to 80s shoegaze to mid-aughts indie rock a la the OC soundtracks, plus all the current bops I’ve been jamming on repeat. Basically, I’ll be playing whatever the hell I want, and it’s gonna be tight.

My show will be called — you guessed it — Barfing Up Lungs (aka my longtime IG handle, which happens to be a Ferris Bueller’s Day Off reference). And I made this fancy little logo to celebrate!

Y’all can tune in to my show (and all the other fabulous Substrate shows) at SubstrateRadio.com, using either the on-site player or the handy little Substrate app that you can download on your Apple/Android devices. (There’s a link to the App Store/Google Play on the aforementioned website!)

Thanks for reading, and pls tune in!

(Also, shoutout to my dad, who I know had a hand in pulling the strings of the universe to make this happen. ❤️)
