Kaelin joined CDC in 2005 on 6 days notice and was immediately thrown into the fire for our first cross country tour. We were a young, disorganized band just trying to play shows, see new things, while having no idea what we were doing. Over the next 8 years he would come and go as needed, and he barely complained about it. He always did what he had to do and enjoyed almost every second of it.

We all grew up together on the road; ripping gigs, driving and flying countless miles, and making life long memories most people can’t even fathom. We saw the world, met amazing people, and ate awesome food, even though his was always “plain”.

Kaelin was an animated larger than life personality. He was able to harness that, combined with his ability to grit it out on the road, and was able continue working in music long after his time in the band ended. He developed quite the career selling merch for many different bands and acts of all sizes and genera’s.

Kaelin left an unwavering mark on the band. He was a road dawg, a hustler, but most of all a friend. It’s been well over a decade since he’s done anything with the band, but his impact is still felt. His name is forever tied to CDC and that can never change.

We traveled from PA to Cali, South Africa to Dubai, Japan to Madagascar, and all over the US and Europe multiple times. We left our mark all over the world and we’ll never forget that.

RIP Kaelin. ❤️❤️❤️

Today, officially a year has passed since day one of filming the music video for “Everything I Wanna Say, Taylor Swift Already Said Better”.

Figured it would be cool to post some behind-the-scenes stuff to celebrate.

still can’t say enough, how appreciative we all are of everyone coming together to make this big idea turn into a very possible reality. ESPECIALLY helping to keep all of us happy and well fed: @dominos @bwwings @freddysusa @wawa

Never thought that filming a music video where I went to middle school would be a box I would check in my life, but here we are.

Dream big. Anything is possible.

Next mission: Now let’s get this song/video to @taylorswift and @killatrav

Please and thank you 💜💜

Happy anniversary to my favorite human and bestest friend. Nine years! Feels like forever and 5 seconds at the same time. I wouldn't want to go through life with anyone else but you. Literally the coolest and best husband ever! Strong, sexy, smart, and also funny as hell. Here's to many more years of shenanigans and love. 😘

Tomorrow is my birthday (Yes, I was 6-7 before it was cool…. 🤷‍♀️😂)

And you know what would mean more to me than anything? Not gifts or grand gestures….

I just want people to see this video for the song, “Everything I Wanna Say, Taylor Swift Already Said Better” and listen to the new EP: “Tower Moment”.

So, with that being said, it would mean the world to me if you could:

💜 Watch the video
💜 Listen to the EP
💜 Repost/comment/like/save/follow
💜 Share it with a friend
💜 Scream-sing these songs in your car with the windows down (especially this one)

(All links in the linktree in bio, but also streaming on all platforms!)

This project took nearly two years to bring to life, and every view, comment, save, and share helps more than you know. (There is no record label…. It’s me, hi, I’m the record label it’s me.)

(It’d be cool if @taylorswift and @killatrav @newheightshow saw this video, let’s make it happen….)

If you’ve read all of this and gotten this far….. Thank you for being here. 🫶 I appreciate you.

💜 Jess
