Picking on Happy Meals from our latest album Tales from Mount Tom with a radically different approach. Mandolin + Accordion = happy place. Real good time at the @marigoldtheater acoustic open mic celebrating @idrumonyou birthday. Many thanks to @reuben_toadstool for capturing us in action

Aight yall! Happy May Day! First two joints are available with preorder on Bandcamp just in time for your Bandcamp Friday joy. We had to get you these two brand new working class classics for your May Day celebrations and/or protests, “They Want to Bring Child Labor Back” & “How to Talk to Your Parents About Communism” are out now! So wet your whistle and tell a friend, Brokestring VS The United States of America: The Same Old Song & Dance is coming soon.

Big shoutout to @daringcoyotes for playing a pile of instruments and making sure we didn’t go crazy making these records. To @noisyrounds for playing friggin sousaphone! And my talented wife for all the patience with our chaotic album making and of course the fab backup vocal work. Link in bio.

My bouncing, squealing bundle of joy is here! Came into my life at 12:27 pm, 14 lbs 10 oz, 16” long, 41 keys, 120 toes…I mean buttons. I’m so proud.

Howdy y’all! Been hiding out all winter working on a massive protest record project (2 of 4 EPs almost done), but we are gonna be popping our heads out to see you more real soon. @daringcoyotes and I will be playing some protest tunes for you at the end of the next No Kings protest on March 28th. We’ll bring some anger, but also some joy, because without the joy, the anger will eat us all. That night will be a continuation of the community gathering with @valleymoonstomperssociety at @marigoldtheater .Now that you know, I gotta get back to the basement and finish arranging all of these tuba parts. (Btw @mihado_gs Fingy Bass is an excellent composition tool, I’ve written so many parts on this baddie).

Here’s to International Women’s Day. The more I live and grow and learn, the more I want to hand over the reins to women. Read these books and you’ll see what I mean.

Happy Bandcamp Friday folks. Tales from Mount Tom has been out for six months that feels like either 6 years or just last week. Time. It’s a challenging subject. It was mad fun to bring @broke_string in on bass for this record and turn it into a full band affair. We’ve been hard at work on his new record, but I’m sure we’ll get back on the psychedelic grass train before too long.

Howdy, your local genderqueer folkie protest singer swinging by to remind you that you don’t have to follow any gender rules you don’t want to. They’re made up and life is too short to follow some bullshit rules that don’t serve you. Enjoy yourself, and be whoever it is you are. Today, right now. You can worry about tomorrow if you ever figure out how to get there. Thank @gnomesfromspace for the new piece, I love it so friggin much.

Slide one, January’s reads. Slide two, February’s stack of books. This month is all about Black authors. Read books. If these things didn’t have the answers, they wouldn’t be trying so hard to get rid of them.

Friends, times are dark. All over. In a lot of ways. It’s important that we find hope and cradle it and nurture it and share it whenever we can. This book is giving me so much hope and filling me with affirmation. Hearing the stories of queer elders about their youth and coming of age, and also thinking about the world we had built for young queers today (until they started tearing it down) has been wonderful for me. It’s led to a lot of reflection and a lot of thinking about how powerful hope and community can be even while the world around us is a raging inferno. I highly recommend this book. To queers. To transfolk. To folks that love us. To the people that hate us. This book is an important celebration of our humanity and I am so here for it.
