10 years with you in my life ❤️ Jess, every day with you has been an adventure. The “big” events (weddings, trips, Archie, Beacon, our house) might serve as memorable life milestones, but you and I both know that it’s all those little moments in-between – the jokes, the songs, the hardships, the tick – that make our story so special. You’re one of the funniest, boldest, nicest, and most beautiful people I know, and I can’t imagine my life without you. You are truly my favorite person ever, and I’m honored that every day, for a full decade, we‘ve woken up and chose each other. I’ll choose you for the rest of my life. Here’s to our first ten years; I love you always. by @mitchmosk

“You Have to Shoot from the Hip”: Brighton’s Hollow Hand Find Magic in the Everyday with “Here Are the Tulips,” a Broodingly Bright Alternative Rock Reverie (@hollowhand) — British indie rock band Hollow Hand find magic in the everyday on “Here Are the Tulips,” a shaggy, hypnotic reverie that turns an ordinary bus ride into a rush of memory, longing, and possibility. A disarming highlight from their fourth album, ‘Wish Road South,’ it captures Hollow Hand at their loosest and most alive, letting instinct, intimacy, and everyday detail bloom into a world all their own. . “When it comes to words, I don’t want to work on them, it shouldn’t be toilsome. In quantum physics you can never understand a moving particle because observing it changes it so fundamentally. For me, writing feels this way – you have to shoot from the hip, and if you don’t then you’re gonna miss.” . “I feel like I’m happiest with my lyrics when they’re simple. The more laboured, the further away they feel to me. These verses contain treasured vignettes, a series of special memories that I think back to often.” . “For me, each album has a personality, demands, and lifetime of its own. They’re like old friends – you don’t always see eye to eye on every detail, but you do appreciate each other, and it’s good to know they’re around.” . “I feel most excited when I hear a musician do so much with so little. It’s the way ‘Coney Island Baby’ sounds, raw and simplified, it seems to me that the style of that album is rightfully left to the songwriting alone. That’s what feels good to me - no trends, no fashion.” . .. … ✍️ @MitchMosk 📸 © @jamesrobertsharp 🔥⁠ link in bio 🔥 ... .. . @loose_music #HollowHand #HereAreTheTulips #WishRoadSouth #music #interview by @mitchmosk

“It Feels Like My Comeback to Myself”: Medium Build Makes Himself at Home on ‘King of Having Fun,’ a Celebration of Life on His Own Terms (@mediumbuild) — A decade into Medium Build, Nick Carpenter emerges from a period of upheaval with a clearer sense of who he is, what he wants, and how he hopes to inhabit the life he fought so hard to build. With his landmark sixth album, ‘King of Having Fun,’ Carpenter looks back on the defenses and approval-seeking that shaped so much of his life, reconnecting with the kid who once found joy in little things as he learns the difference between having fun and merely surviving – and, in the process, comes back to himself. . “King of Having Fun is a celebration that I’m alive. I survived. I got past the hot potato… This isn’t a comeback, but somehow, it feels like my comeback to myself.” . “I’m letting go. I’m letting God. I’m chilling. I’m having fun. I’m laughing. I’m taking the stairs. I’m eating more ice cream than ever. I’m maybe gonna sign up for a marathon – who knows? I don’t feel scared anymore.” . “You kind of have to kill old you to become new you. And there was just a lot of me that needed to die. I think it’s all documented on here.” . “Is your life worth approval from someone? Historically, for me, it has been. I have given people everything to approve of me. And now I’m giving myself the gift of approving myself so I don’t have to go seek it.” . “Every day, I have to hack into my own brain and re-download the program that says, ‘You have done enough.’ But if you leave me alone for 20 minutes and I find something shiny, I will recalibrate to my old way.” . “The king of having fun was me before I learned to mask and code-switch and posture.” . “Fun is not concerned with safety. Fun knows it’s safe. Survival is a chokehold on control and safety.” . “I just want people to feel free. As free as I feel right now. I want people to feel invited and good.” . “I’m not an icon. I’m just a guy doing my thing.” . .. … ✍️ @MitchMosk 🖼️ © @connorgrasso 📸 © @bethgarrabrant 🔥⁠ link in bio 🔥 ... .. . #MediumBuild #KingOfHavingFun #music #feature #interview by @mitchmosk

“It Feels Like Our Luck Is Changing”: NYC’s Closebye Choose the Unknown on “No Troubles Left At All,” a Spellbinding Indie Rock Anthem of Survival and Renewal (@closebyeband) — NYC indie rock band Closebye channel hard-won recovery into “No Troubles Left At All,” a hazy, hypnotic exhale whose quietly radiant glow captures the thrill of surviving the hardest part and stepping together into whatever comes next. . “It represents being at the crossroads of an old life and a new life and making the choice to not give up.” . “I think the song speaks to a sort of in-between period where growth and change doesn’t feel dramatic or triumphant but more so just a little painful, maybe a little boring.” . “I think we’re a band that you can enjoy casually, but there’s an opportunity to go deeper if you wish to.” . “We hope people find something of themselves in these songs and decide to come along for the ride.” . .. … ✍️ @MitchMosk 📸 © @bugsandflowers 🔥⁠ link in bio 🔥 ... .. . #Closebye #NoTroublesLeftAtAll #music #interview #feature by @mitchmosk

“Blood Ties” and Hard Truths: Rowena Wise Is Making Peace With the Mess of Being Human Through Smoldering, Unflinching Indie Folk Songs (@thatgalro) — Rowena Wise is in her most raw and self-searching chapter yet, channeling the wounds we inherit and the truths we try to outrun into soul-stirring indie folk songs about our messy, flawed humanity. The Australian singer/songwriter brings that reckoning into sharp focus on her sophomore album ‘Bad Things Feel Good*,’ where self-performance and existential loneliness collide with the courage to sit with what cannot be solved cleanly – beginning with lead single “Blood Ties,” a searing confrontation with family silence and emotional suppression. . “We don’t have to be extraordinary to be worthy. We are not special, we are simply enough.” . “Loving someone isn’t just about providing or protecting – it’s about being willing to sit in discomfort, to speak openly, and to let yourself be seen. When we can’t do that, even the deepest love can feel distant.” . “The pain and joy in those songs resonates with me in a way that reminds me to be kind to myself. They remind me that even in darkness and confusion I can make something honest, which is inherently beautiful.” . “I’ve been trying to allow myself to fall and fail and realise that is okay, that it’s a normal part of learning. It’s part of being a flawed human, full of light and dark.” . “Sometimes songwriting has this spooky way of revealing deeper truths you’re not quite realising yet. Music has a way of expressing meaning that words alone cannot express.” . “I’ve fallen in love, I’ve been self-destructive, felt the pressure to perform as a person, felt alone in the universe. I don’t know who I am but I accept that feeling bad sometimes is a necessary part of growth.” . “I’ve been grappling with these growing pains of adulthood, allowing the messiness of life to sink in rather than trying to make clean sense of it.” . .. … ✍️ @MitchMosk 📸 © @nick_mckk 🔥⁠ link in bio 🔥 ... .. . @22twentyclub @beloved__records #RowenaWise #BadThingsFeelGood #music #interview #feature by @mitchmosk

“Fun, Awkward, & Joyful”: Lottie McLeod Rides Love’s Highs and Heartaches on “Wednesdays at the Waterloo,” an Indie Pop Daydream (@lottieemcleod) — Brisbane singer/songwriter Lottie McLeod embraces life’s contradictions on “Wednesdays at the Waterloo” and forthcoming sophomore EP ‘The Boathouse,’ pairing breathless crushes with bruising boundaries in a coming-of-age collection where heartbreak and joy are allowed to coexist. . “Nothing is linear, not grief, not joy, not heartbreak. Hard times come and go and music will always be there to help us through it.” . “I’m usually so serious in my writing so it was actually so fun just to approach a song with nothing but the fun, awkward and joyful side of a crush.” . “You can go through things like grief and heartbreak but still enjoy life at the same time. It’s easy to feel guilty for it but two things can be true.” . “To be turning 21 with a better sense of identity and comfortability in where I’m at and what I still need to learn… That’s what this The Boathouse period represents for me.” . “I want people to listen to this song and feel joyful - it’s so nice to do something light. ‘Wednesdays at the Waterloo’ was written about the very serious topic of doing terribly at trivia because you’re too busy crushing on someone in your group.” . .. … ✍️ @MitchMosk 📸 © @carriemcleodphotography 🔥⁠ link in bio 🔥 ... .. . @abcmusic #LottieMcLeod #WednesdaysAtTheWaterloo #music #interview #feature by @mitchmosk

“The World Often Feels Loud Enough Already”: Brighton’s Memorial Find Power in Softness on ‘Jera,’ a Breathtakingly Beautiful Alt-Folk Triumph (@friendsofmemorial) — Brighton alt-folk duo Memorial reclaim their creative purpose on ‘Jera,’ a dreamy, soul-stirring third album whose frost-covered songs and gentle drift transform burnout and uncertainty into a tender harvest of renewal and hard-won wonder. In conversation with Atwood Magazine, Jack Watts and Oliver Spalding open up about stepping away from industry pressures, recording live in snowbound Reykjavík, and rediscovering the friendship and curiosity that first drew them to music. . “We’ve always been interested in the small details of being human, the quiet thoughts and inner conversations we all have… The world often feels loud enough already, so if our music can be a gentle whisper that someone finds when they need it, that feels meaningful to us.” . “We almost approached these songs as though no one would ever hear them. That mindset was incredibly freeing. It also gave us the chance to rediscover who we are as a band without the noise of expectations or outside opinions. We needed that space to find our own voice again.” . “Of course, financial stability would be welcome, but creating something honest, cathartic and meaningful already feels like success to us.” . “I’m a firm believer that behind every harsh or abrasive emotion is usually a much more fragile and vulnerable one… To us, real strength is found in thoughtfulness, vulnerability and compassion.” . “Beauty, wonder and peace exist whether you’re paying attention to them or not.” . .. … ✍️ @MitchMosk 📸 © @sunnaben 🔥⁠ link in bio 🔥 ... .. . @opiacommunity #Memorial #Jera #music #interview #feature by @mitchmosk

“I Am the Best Artist I’ve Ever Been”: 44phantom Breaks Through on ‘IN RETROSPECT,’ a Raw, Bruising Reckoning With Himself (@44phantom) — 44phantom barrels through the wreckage of early fame and his own past mistakes on his sonically explosive, emotionally charged third record ‘IN RETROSPECT,’ an unflinchingly candid album where blown-out guitars and massive hooks carry the sharpest, most human writing of his career. The Oklahoma alternative artist opens up about escaping someone else’s rock-and-roll dream and trusting the instincts that helped him create his most personal and complete record yet. . “I feel like I’m finally making art for the first time in my life. It’s a lot more of finding why that song should exist, and what I want to say.” . “I am the best artist I’ve ever been. My songs are the best they’ve ever been. My writing is the best it’s ever been.” . “I think I’ve been trying to write the song that makes me feel whole my entire life. Since I was a kid, I’ve just felt like there’s something missing in me that isn’t missing in everyone else, and when I write a song that feels honest and truthful, I feel better for a while.” . “I made a point in this album to really start putting myself in my music, rather than trying to just write a great song, I wanted to write a song in a way only I could.” . “There’s almost nothing worse than being right when you want to be proven wrong.” . “I needed to throw a blanket over myself to figure out who I am. The good parts and the bad parts.” . “Music is like a color we all see differently. Take from it what you take from it. Cry, laugh, scream, skip it and go listen to Olivia Rodrigo, I’m cool with all of it. I guess maybe I just want you to think for a moment. I’m not sure about what, but if I made you think I’d say I did my job.” . “Success or failure (whatever that even means) is decided by me and me only. There’s a weird sense of peace in being on your own.” . .. … ✍️ @MitchMosk 📸 © @jacq_justice 🔥⁠ link in bio 🔥 ... .. . #44phantom #INRETROSPECT #music #interview #feature by @mitchmosk

“I Don’t Have to Stop Feeling Deeply”: IAN SWEET Surrenders to Life on the Spellbinding ‘Shiverstruck’ (@ian_sweeeeet) — IAN SWEET’s Jilian Medford throws herself headlong into life on ‘Shiverstruck,’ a spellbinding, emotionally electric fifth album that channels reckless romance, self-doubt, and hard-won self-trust into the liberating realization that we don’t need to have everything figured out. The singer/songwriter sits down with Atwood Magazine to discuss relinquishing control, laughing at the stories we tell about ourselves, rediscovering her instincts, and making a record that taught her how to get knocked down by life and keep moving. . “I think I had unintentionally built part of my identity around being sad. When you’ve been writing emotional music for most of your life it can start to feel like pain is somehow part of the job title. ‘Wild Heart’ was me realizing I don’t have to stop feeling deeply in order to not be defined by sadness.” . “I think the story is me realizing that I couldn’t keep waiting to become some more figured out version of myself.” . “A lot of this record is about learning to let life knock me on my ass a little and trusting that I can get back up.” . “Making the record slowly became about surrendering to it. By the end of making it I felt more like myself than I had in years. Not because I suddenly had all the answers (I definitely do not) but because I think I stopped needing them as badly.” . “I think Shiverstruck is the closest I’ve gotten to just letting myself exist inside a record fully. I wasn’t really reacting to anything musically. I stopped asking myself what an IAN SWEET record was supposed to sound like and trusted my instincts more.” . “Sometimes you make the same mistake twice. Sometimes you’re dramatic and it’s ok. There’s still so much life left to live.” . “You can be confused, make a bad decision, run back to your ex, change your mind, start over, get completely knocked on your ass by life and keep moving and growing.” . .. … ✍️ @MitchMosk 📸 © @wrenneevans 🔥⁠ link in bio 🔥 ... .. . @polyvinylrecords #IanSweet #Shiverstruck #music #interview #feature by @mitchmosk

“Will the Light Still Win?”: Joshua Jensen Debuts with Grace & Thunder on “Hoping,” a Towering Folk-Rock Prayer Against Despair (@jjoshuajensen) — Singer/songwriter Joshua Jensen introduces himself with breathtaking command and soul-baring conviction on his towering debut single “Hoping,” a slow-burning folk-rock prayer that rises from private heartbreak into a full-throated refusal to surrender, offering a fractured world one more reason to trust that the light can still win. . “I wrote ‘Hoping’ as a personal prayer for hope born out of the darkest pit-of-hell moment I’ve ever experienced. Rather than addressed directly to God, it’s to my mama, brothers, and lover. Despite there being a lot of questions left unanswered in it, it’s a song that continues to answer the next beautiful, messy cluster of moments that make up a full life.” . “A breakup, a loss of a loved one, a move cross-country, new friends, the tearful goodbyes and promising hellos. ‘Hoping’ celebrates all of them, and beckons you down to water’s edge to take the plunge.” . “I was inspired by songs that grow out of nothing, just a guitar and vocal, and into world-building euphoric scale. Often my life is like that; ideas that start completely insular and in my head then get to extend into the world. The questions the song asks grow from one person asking them to a whole chorus, and I think that shows that no matter how alone we feel there is always people around us experiencing the same things.” . “Everything is homemade here… I want to assemble the best ingredients I can and scrap a meal together for you. Can’t promise it’ll be something you’ve tried before, but it will be from the heart.” . “Humans love making all kinds of sounds, I’m just trying to figure out what I love the most. Chasing the goosebumps.” . “Nothing ‘perfect’ ever gives you goosebumps or makes you cry. You can’t tame the beast too much or it loses its spark. Let it run free.” . .. … ✍️ @MitchMosk 📸 © courtesy of the artist 🔥⁠ link in bio 🔥 ... .. . #JoshuaJensen #Hoping #music #interview #premiere by @mitchmosk
