The bingo scene in Pittsburgh is amazing

Anybody else working on a quadruple album right now?

I've tried but I can't go ambient right now

The sock scene at Sound and Gravity Fest is pretty amazing!

I am happy to find out that a person who I really like has a bunny.

Wrote a new song while eating carrot cake

Some people I know get mad at me 'cause I don't do what they want

Ease is overrated. Most things worth doing aren't all that easy.

Sunday at 3pm at @esschicago in Chicago

I cleared it with mz. In studio from 10 - 8.

On her first album in 20 years, Edith Frost sounds as sharp and inviting as ever - Chicago Reader Texas singer-songwriter Edith Frost makes soulful fusions of country rock and folk in step with moody indie-country architects such as Susanna Clark and Townes Van Zandt.

Playing guitar with Edith for part of her set at the Hideout on Saturday night!

Available on Limited Edition Ocean Blue Cassette. Get yours: seawindofbattery.bandcamp.com/album/save-t...

All proceeds benefit PBS.

Thank you to everyone in Chicago, Bloomington IN, Louisville and Bloomington IL who hosted BCMC and played with us

You made it a time to remember!
