I’m a little late getting around to this blog post, but in my defence I sort of hate talking about this one. I did a 3-part YouTube series on my acoustic cover of “Hear You Me” by Jimmy Eat World back on July 9th 2021; I live-tweeted this event, much like I live-tweeted today’s “Tiny Vessels” – Death Cab For Cutie 3-Part cover song series. … Continue reading “Hear You Me” Cover Song Series
I don’t really have a good title for this type of series yet, so this will have to suffice for now. Today I released 3 videos as part of my Wayback-Playback Wednesday acoustic cover song series.

If you haven’t read that yet, check it out by clicking this help highlighted text that’ll take you straight to it. So let’s just quickly jump back to our arrival at The Moxy, which, for the record, I can’t recommend enough. On google it’s listed as … Continue reading Lolzafest Chicago 2021
Now this is embarrassing. In December 2020 I reached out to two friends who have small children and asked them what their favourite song or show was without any context as to why I was asking.
