... we're spotlighting a more contemporary songwriter who happens to be a Black lesbian, as well as a tremendous social justice music-maker: Crys Matthews. @crysmatthews.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=iip8...

I stand with County Executive Calvin Ball as he signs emergency legislation today prohibiting privately owned buildings from being used as ICE detention centers.

Howard County chose dignity, accountability, and its people. Tune into our event now:

You've still got time to come experience Songs on Why We Can't Wait! Also, I somehow forgot to include the fact that I'm coming to Oneonta, NY so, if you know anyone there, please be sure to let them know.

#RockportMA, I'll see you in a few hours!

I woke up to the most beautiful message today from someone who caught the livestream of last night's show at Club Passim. Their kind words confirmed for me what so many of you have confirmed at these first few shows: this program is a balm for weary souls.

Cambridge/Boston, you're up next! See you tonight at Club Passim!

You already know: We’re going to keep singing and showing up, @crysmatthews.bsky.social.

This history of our movement is generational. We rise on the shoulders of those who came before us — and we’re building a future for those who come after us.

#Ithaca

Tomorrow night in #northampton is SOLD OUT!! That's the first time I've been able to say that for one of my solo shows at @parlorroommusic, so happy Black History Month to ME!! ❤️🙌🏾🎉

Thanks so much for the love. I'm hanging in there, but definitely looking at property in Canada once every other week. 😂❤️✊🏾

So now, I sense a hand Upon my shoulder I'm waking up the dead And the air is getting colder And I'm minding my steps Oh, my eyes are wide And I am who I am 'Cause they were alive Dirt on my soles From a graveyard stroll Picking up the pieces of the past And the ghosts don't scare me In this cemetery, no, no They're singing, "Freedom! Freedom at last!" Crys Matthews [Image: pale grey with gritty texture]

Regardless of if we get the push we need to make it to the next round or not, I know speak for both of us in saying thank you to all of you who went on this crazy ride with us. To have a shot at our dream wedding because of you and the way you love our love means so much. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I'm just going to post this one last thing and then leave it up to the Universe. We trust that all things work together for good... always, so the Universe is going to do what she always does. We'll just be here loving each other through all of it.

This is totally an anthem for our times! Thank you @crysmatthews.bsky.social www.patreon.com/posts/forged...

Our love is that sneak-up-on-you kind We were friends Then more than friends And then I couldn't get you off my mind Our love ain't a fairytale or bedtime story It's a Broadway play With joy and worry If you love hard, you fight hard for it It's saying yes to forever Not knowing what tomorrow might bring It's "for better or worse" With or without the ring Crys Matthews feat.

Working on posting more frequently over her. So glad you got a clip of Pittsburgh.

Just discovered @crysmatthews.bsky.social is here and at least occasionally posting, so a good time to go “oh shit i never did post the videos I took when she came to Pittsburgh”
