hi friends,
thought i'd close the month out with something a little lighter <3
i'm still a bit behind on life, so no video yet, but my cover of "build me up buttercup" is now out in all the places so i wanted to make sure you were the first to know. singing this song was an absolute delight :)

hi friends <3
i was digging through some of the files i've been working on in the past month and came across another one of my stream-of-consciousness vocal meditations, "a major," that i thought i'd share. so here that is :)
the past few weeks since finding out we lost the pregnancy have been quite a rol...

infertility is rough. like really rough. i first shared about my experience a year ago. since then it has become an even bigger part of my day-to-day existence, but at some point i stopped knowing how to talk about it and now it feels like i've been going through the world mute.
i have wanted to be a mom since i was ...

hello sweet humans i can hardly believe are real,
writing today to share with you all a special duet with jesse that has just come out today. it's called "when the smoke clears". apologies in advance that the embedded video is a mere one-minute clip, but you you can listen to it in its entirety here! 2020-06-26 19:49:02 +0000 UTC View Post
hello wonderful humans,
my goodness what a time we find ourselves in. so much to feel, so much to learn, so much to do, and yet so much we still cannot do given the state of the world. these are such trying times in so many ways. important times, too. i hope you are managing to stay safe, healthy, and centered as best y...

Hi there,
May is upon us! How did we get here? Time seems to be both blowing by and moving at a snail's pace for me these past few months. The days have felt long, but the weeks, light-speed. Very odd.
Anyway. Our May Coff...

hello lovely people of kg records <3
here's a little acoustic version of "souvenirs" for you all.
i've been hearing that the songs i wrote during and about my time in jakarta have started to make sense on a more personal level for people lately--and it really is strange how applicable these songs feel to the cu...

Happy release day, KG Records Family!!
Release days will always be colored slightly with dread and anxiety and insecurity, but the undercurrent of joy that a little song that found its way to me now gets to stretch its wings and find its way into the world and into your hands will always win out over those other feeling...

Hello dear humans of KG Records <3
Hi. Goodness. I'm not quite sure what to say.
Times are hard and strange and if you're anything like me (or all 7.5 billion other humans on the planet) you've probably been feeling some feelings about it all. I myself have been a bit all over the place--up, down, hopeful...

First things first. I must apologize for 1. the out of focus wide shot in this video and 2. the makeup smudged all over my eyelids in my closeups 😂 Boy, I really dropped the ball on this one.

It's 2020! Hi! Kicking off the year with a cover of Damien Rice's "Cannonball" :) Hope you enjoy it. Side note--for any Damien fans out there, have you seen my "Volcano" cover from back in the day?
