☀️JUNE EVENTS + Cobra Fest☀️

June has shaped up to be an exciting month!! We’ll be welcoming many folks for the first time, and bringing back some of your favorites!

✨6/10 The stars have finally aligned, and we’ll be welcoming @squirrelmovementband to the Loose Cobra stage, along with their friends @brythmakesmusic (STL), and returners & absolute rippers, @brain__sex 💨

🧨 6/12 C-U heroes @terminusvictor will be supporting @seasontorisk (KCMO), another batch of Cobra first-timers! Be sure to bring $15 (or more??) for the glowing orange bucket to support these touring folks!!

🍻 6/6 Cheers to our friends at @thisispygmalion for bringing another awesome bill our way! Make sure you grab your tickets for @pallbearerdoom w/ @bloodvultureband and @edna666_bastard from the link in our bio!

‼️ And, of course, Cobra Fest 2026 is Saturday July 11. Get $5 off when you grab tickets in advance (also linked in bio 🫣).

🩲Also, while you’re at it, consider grabbing a Loose Cobra shirt to appease our in-house dummy spokesman, Lil’ Chappy - he said for a limited time, all shirts come with a 4-pack of LC coasters!! 🫣(another bio link, sorry🫶🏼)

We can’t wait to see you all along the way. This is why we Cobra 🐍🖤

Pinebender is playing Fitzgerald’s on Saturday 2/21/26 with Allen Epley (Shiner!) and Matt Talbot’s Tractor Kings (Hum!). Small handful of silkscreened posters by Jay Ryan will be for sale at the gig. Jay’s dog/my step-dog Junco approves. C’mon now. ❤️❤️

Throwback to a Thursday night in ’99 when @nymb_official tore up @emptybottle (back when flyers were still horizontal and your coat smelled like cigarettes after the set.) Even we were too young to get into the show!

We continue to work on the Nymb discography due out in 2026. Keep your eyes peeled.

2025 ❤️

I recorded an album. I fell in love. I played a bunch of shows, kissed my cats, and kept going with a little help from my friends.

I love you, and I love this weird beautiful life. Thank you for supporting me and my music, from the bottom of my heart.

(And about that new record - currently shopping it to labels and figuring out a release plan - but it is finished, and I hope you love it. Here’s “What If It All Works Out” because I’m impatient and want you to hear some of it. Felt appropriate for a year that continued to surprise me with moments of goodness throughout the hard times. What if it all works out?)
