No-skip, life-changing album for me! Discovered RCH during this time from a split sampler w/ @piebald (2 tracks each). One of the few albums where I grab as many different pressings as I can find (🤓 info below!) 🎙️

Reel:
~2001 EU #defiancerecords pressing • most recent addition!~

Comments:
~2001 US @doghouserecords pressings~
Translucent Green Marble • my original copy!
Opaque Green Marble • from the man himself @jamesmenefee
Opaque Grey Marble • elusive for years!!

I’ve agonized over this post for so long trying to properly express what Chicago meant to me that suddenly an entire month had passed; what an absolute joy to capture such a beautiful summation of Andrew’s career, and to do alongside some of my favorite people in the entire world and with the kindest, most welcoming crew around.

@amnthewilderness thank you again and again for the music that has shaped nearly half my life and continuing to prove there are good people out there. Getting to work alongside you is an honor I’ll never take lightly.

@ryancarignan @aemcde thank you for letting me hang for a few days, I promise I (probably) won’t fall down the stairs next time @elevamy thank you for being my friend and constantly inspiring me @iittlebird thank you for housing me and making this possible there are too many people to tag and my heart is so full!!

nearly a decade ago i took my camera to a couple @amnthewilderness shows and began a career in music photography - those damn pianos are and will always be so important to me

thank you eternally andrew, best boss/subject/peer/friend anyone could ask for

this was a monster of a production and i had so much fun climbing and running laps around the venue (and dancing in the rain with @chantelmalin 🫶), thank you @ryancarignan & @aemcde for having me out again for another few days with the best crew ever 🫂

Three Pianos Tour!!

A week of rehearsal and three shows in three weekends. It was a wild ride, made a lot of new friends and put on some incredible shows. Can’t ask for much more than that!

Special thanks to @williamtell2nd and Brian Ireland for playing the video out
