I (Reid) contributed a little to this summary! Read it over while giving us 1/3 of a cent at a time on Sp*tify!
In June, the UN published a report condemning Spotify + the rest of the streaming economy, and proposed the creation of a new type of streaming royalty payment. We really loved the report, but it's long and technical, so we made a more accessible summary: unionofmusicians.org/un-repo…
2/3 of us (along with ~40 other artists) did a cover of @gobband's "I Hear You Calling" for this week's @155pod! podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcas…

Just had the thought "hey, all these new They Might Be Giants songs kinda sound the same" which is honestly pretty ballsy of me.
We (along with Frank Capra) made a video for "Clarence, I Wanna Live Again"!!
Fun fact: the movie was investigated by the FBI under suspicion of being communist propaganda for featuring a ruthless capitalist as the villain.

RIP Pete Shelley - your stuff was great but we also owe so much to you indirectly thru all the other bands you inspired. This one stings a little. youtube.com/watch?v=eVfBfIcc…
