Thank you Jane Albright for the shout-out with Ryan Jay Reviews and the blog on my performance at TeslaCon! ☺️ 17 days! Can’t wait to meet you all in person. 🎍✨

Bein’ the king this year. 🎃🔪

🎃 Jack Pumpkinhead, the first release from my new album, Oz Acoustic, will be available on streaming next week, Oct 27. In this scene from my Patchwork Girl of Oz adaptation 🎶 Jack introduces himself to our gang, and gives them some advice. 🎃 [Jack] The Quadling Country’s full of dangers. 👨🏼‍🌾 [Scarecrow] I’ve faced Hammerheads and the Fighting Trees! 👠 [Dorothy] Oh, it’s a wild country, but I guess we’ll have to go… if we want that water from that dark well. 🎍✨

I sent a vid introducing myself over to the TeslaCon preview party in Wisconsin. Performing at the National Oz Convention Nov 12-15! 🎍✨

Middleton, Wisconsin  Nov 12-15 Performing @  National Wizard of Oz Convention - part of TelsaCon: An Oz-Themed Steampunk convention!  Playing Oz classics & Patchwork Girl of Oz originals.  There’ll be characters from  Patchwork Girl - immersive!🌪️

Middleton, Wisconsin ✨ November 12th - November 15 I’m performing at this year’s  National Wizard of Oz Convention,  as part of TelsaCon: An Oz-Themed Steampunk convention!  I’ll be playing Oz classics,  and Patchwork Girl of Oz originals. 🎶 There’ll be characters from  The Patchwork Girl of Oz 📖  at the convention, creating an immersive experience!  I’m so excited to dive into this. 🌪️🎍

Back from Universal Parks trip. ☺️ Seeing Nintendo World was a dream come true. 👻🍄 Big life changes here [good but exhausting] & then the trip — I’ve been behind on messages & memes & events. 😛 Back in the studio soon to wrap up this Oz Acoustic album! 💚✨ The legend John Boes added vivid saxophone that creates more space in the shadowed pastoral vibe. 🎷🌾

Exciting changes and music news incoming. ☀️✨ Plan is to use 5 more weekends to finish our Oz Acoustic album — By September/October, I hope to have a schedule for 𝘢 𝘺𝘦𝘢𝘳 𝘰𝘧 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘖𝘻 𝘴𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘱𝘦𝘳 𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘩. I think the world could use that! 🧚🏻🫧 Starting with the lockdown era, I’ve been writing with specific intent of mirroring the times we live in 🤪𝘞𝘏𝘈𝘛 𝘍𝘜𝘕 so the story-outside-the-story of the Oz Acoustic album is that, after 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘤𝘪𝘦𝘳𝘵𝘢 𝘘𝘶𝘢𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘢 and 𝘉𝘶𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘧𝘭𝘺 𝘗𝘢𝘳𝘢𝘥𝘦, and 𝘑𝘉𝘕𝘎𝘚𝘈𝘞, 𝘐𝘞𝘍𝘛𝘎𝘖𝘐𝘈𝘐𝘞𝘍𝘛𝘎𝘜𝘎𝘙, and singing our 𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭 𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮, it makes sense I’d retreat into “𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘺 𝘪𝘯 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘥, 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘪𝘧 𝘪𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘢 𝘧𝘢𝘪𝘳𝘺𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘥, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘐'𝘮 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘺 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘶𝘵𝘦 𝘐 𝘭𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘪𝘵.” 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘚𝘩𝘢𝘨𝘨𝘺 𝘔𝘢𝘯 🌈 I’m praying for my community victims of the Berlin attack this week. It is clear who is usually loud and silent now, and why. Songwriters are frightened to dip their toes in the water we’re actually swimming in. But I’ve done my time 🥵 — and will surely return to “relevant” songwriting, — but I hope everyone enjoys this next movement of pure fantasy I’ve got cooked for ya. 🤍🧚🏻✨
