What's New, June 2024

Hi! Again! Back with some early-summer updates...

First of all, my album came out! Savant hit streaming services on May 21 and it's already approaching platinum. For some value of "approaching". You should go listen to it if you haven't already! And if you have already, you should listen again!

I've got a couple of appearances scheduled for June. First, I'll be tabling at Pride in Bangor, ME on June 22. Then on the 24, I'll be the featured poet at a poetry show in Western Mass. Still hoping some other Pride festivals offer me a set 🤞🏼 Pride crowds are always wonderful.

You might have noticed that DATALEAK i and DATALEAK ii disappeared from streaming services. But the sxr gripp and curveBREAKERS songs will be back in rotation starting on the 25, with some all-new cover art!

Did a little photoshoot with a Brooklyn-based model.

Also made a bit of progress with my reading! I finished Robert's Rules of Order Newly Revised In Brief pretty quickly. So after three relatively short books, I decided I was ready for some more theory and started Pedagogy of the Oppressed by Paulo Freire. I'm about a quarter of the way through it. Gonna do my best to finish it this month so I can maintain my lead on my goal 🫡

As always, thanks for vibing with me.

✌🏼
