I had the pleasure of arranging and producing this song, “Make The World Better”, which was performed by some incredible kids who collaborated across the country on this project. The song was written by Charlotte Bowder, who you’ll see first, and the video was produced by the inimitable Rosa Gaia. Check it out, spread it around:

In the August of 2002 I had just turned 17, and I drove across country with my brother and our neighbor. We backpacked in the Grand Tetons, showered in truck stops, and I learned how to drive stick. ~

Scenes from New York, May 2020. On my way to the park yesterday, I was walking down my block and heard this ethereal music floating on the breeze. Two neighbors took their guitars out on the stoop to score the Sunday scene.

“Tidal Wave” is out now. I wrote this song on a perfect day on the beach on Assateague Island, and somehow it still takes me back there, I hope it does the same for you. Link in bio 🌊

Thanks to @davidgenat for using Tidal Wave as the theme song for your new podcast, The Golden Godcast.

“Competitions” is near and dear to my heart. It began as a score I wrote for a theatre piece, and it evolved into this. And like all good sad stories, it’s true.

Catherine Lacey and I met in the first week of freshman year of college, and I immediately thought “This broad is savage! I’ll be friends with her.” She’s hilarious, she’s brilliant, she’s blunt, she’s warm, she’s weird, she’s got it all, folks. And luckily for everyone, she writes beautiful books, so we can all spend some time inside her bizarre and wonderful mind. Happy Birthday, Lazerbeam.

In a few short years, Paul Peglar has gone from being a guy I knew and liked to one of my best friends who I can’t imagine my life without. He’s endlessly playful, a brilliant musician, and very nice to cats. Thanks for existing, @ppeglar and Happy Birthday 💙

I’ve been locked away with this woman for the past few weeks, and I must confess: not a single moment of boredom. I feel so deeply fortunate that when this bizarre storm struck, I got stranded on this island.

“High Hopes” is out now! Go listen to the whole song wherever you listen. Then come back here and tell me what you think. I’ll wait.

@davidgenat The world doesn’t need me to tell them how incredible a man you are, but maybe you do. Yes, you’re an absolute Adonis, but what wasn’t obvious about you when we first met is that you’re savagely funny, endlessly considerate and caring, and pretty good at just about anything. Seeing you be an absolute virtuoso on @survivorau has made me believe that reality tv can be worth watching. Seeing you be a husband and a father is an inspiration. Seeing you navigate your life creatively, sensitively, and with pure joie de vivre makes me want to be a better person. You’re nailing life. Happy 40th.

Pic 3 is when I forced Dave to wear a Strange Weather shirt that would barely contain him
Pic 4 is some earwax that I thought resembled The Golden God
Pic 5 is when Callie and I emerged from 11 straight hours of Survivor binge to sing Dave happy birthday...Callie was so happy she cried.

Ooooh man, I was announced as a Semi-Finalist in the International Songwriting Competition! Tom awaits, Coldplay, Fleet Foxes, Dua Lipa, and American Authors are just some of the judges. If you’ve been to one of our shows in the past year, you may have heard “What Everybody Wants” live, but if not, stay tuned, I’ll be releasing it this year.

Thanks to everyone who got nasty on the dance floor at Same Same. Thanks to you, it was the best Strange Weather show yet, and one of the best experiences of my life. Please tag anybody who you know that was there!
