It’s been 10 years since “When Marnie Was There” was released into the world.Last night I watched the film in the theater during @ghiblifest for the first time in a decade.So many memories and feelings came up for me and by the end I was just crying.Not only was it a dream come true project, but the people I got to work with and meet will forever be in my heart.It was a magical summer.

1. I cringe when I see this photo because I couldn’t look dorkier standing next to my hero Hayao Miyazaki, who sat with me that day and let me ask him anything I wanted. 🥹
2. Back stage at @rockinjapanfestivallive right before performing.
3. Heading to another stage with the film composer Takatsugu Muramatsu (I couldn’t find our songs on IG, so I’m using one of my favorite Joe Hisaishi songs)
4 & 5: Travelljng all over Japan to promote the film
6. Always returning “home” to this view of Aoyama
7. Performing at the screenings
8. My silly “goodbye” speech to everyone
9. A cookie!
10. Me last night, 10 years later, feeling all the feels 😊

The closer I get to this Friday’s show at @thehotelcafe the more I realize how special this room was for me, not just for my career, but for my life.The people I’ve met here, the moments shared.Honestly, any space where people come together to experience music together holds real magic, in my opinion.And on top of that, I get to share the night with my dear friend Bobby, aka @bigphony. 🥹 I’m such a fan of his!!

Found an old video note of me trying to work out another possible cover for the album, first thing one morning, straight out of bed. 💁🏻‍♀️ I’ll be playing lots of my new covers at @thehotelcafe on 4/17. 😁

Ok…. I just have to take a moment here and pinch myself a thousand more times…. This was such a crazy dream come-true-for-me moment.When I was in 7th grade, I would turn MTV on every morning while I was getting ready for school and Semisonic’s “Closing Time” music video would be playing on there constantly, and I was obsessed — with the song, with the split screen video…. And at the end of every day I would stand in the shower singing this song at the top of my lungs (not unlike how I am in this video 😅🥴) and I’d daydream of who might ask me to the school dance— haha! 🥰 10 years later I got to meet Dan Wilson on @thehotelcafe tour, and years after that we sat in my living room and wrote “Waiting” together, and years later he’s singing at a benefit concert for my kids’ school.This feels like a peak, beautiful manifestation moment for me…. Unreal.And seriously, what a privilege to know such a kind, generous and talented songwriting master. 🙌🏽 From the bottom of my artist child’s heart, thank you @danwilsonmusic 💖

Hello lovelies!Happy 2026!I haven’t posted in forever, so I quickly threw this together this morning.I’m literally checking my watch and realizing I was late to a meeting 🥴. I’ve been on my phone less and reading a lot more.Everything I’m reading is super angsty which is what compelled me to learn this song. ☺️ Bonus points for anyone who might wanna guess what I’m reading… @googoodollsofficial
