Live looping and strings show this past February 🌸

It honestly feels weird posting about this, given everything happening right now in our country and our world. I’d like to believe that this art we make is pushing the world towards a slightly brighter direction, but in the face of so much tragedy, it feels really difficult to do so.

I’ve been finding some solace in a book I’ve been reading called Orwell’s roses. “Vermeer worked in a turbulent, war-plagued time, and that the pressure of all that violence is what those paintings are all about, but that they are about it by being its opposite, about the peace we crave in times of war, the stillness and uproar, about the persistence of the every day and its beauty”.

let us continue to help each others in whatever ways we can, but never forget the beautiful things in life that energize us to keep going through so much uncertainty.

thank you to our secret venue, @jamesloosey for such expressive lights, @local_spice for the stunning photos, @hnoobs and @matildeheckler for incredible live strings, @priyaonstage for a co-organizing an unforgettable collaboration. Grateful to have raised some money to send to @angryasianwomxn for the work making ICE resistance kits, providing information about and aid to the continued Palestinian struggle, the Iranian bombings…god, there’s too much happening. Everyone, sending deepest love. stay strong and support each other ♥️

Sorry for the long ass comment ahead lol but your performance that night really resonated with me because I feel the exact same way! But I saw someone mention that with the state of the country and the world being what it is, continuing to create art despite of it, is an act of protest because that’s exactly what they want but by continuing to create, we’re choosing peace and togetherness instead of division. Although it may seem small, and being able to distract from what’s going on in the world is a privilege, you still managed to create a space (a packed house I may add) where in that moment, listening to your music, people could be transported into your universe and I think that’s really beautiful. And only great music and art can do that!🙌🏼✨
