My album "Mote" is charting on KALX radio in Berkeley CA

Pretty sure my music is not Americana 🙃 but what are genres anyway? I'll take it.

@woodfordhalse.bandcamp.com have 9 Mote cds left: fennycompton.bandcamp.com/album/fc8-mote

Avi C. Engel they/them artist & musician I'm not writing the same song over and over so much as writing one long continuous song that will end when I die.

My 14-year-old laptop is showing real signs of decrepitude. I hope I can finish the album I'm currently mixing without any disasters, but then I will need to upgrade. Bandcamp purchases & Patreon support are both deeply appreciated & help me to keep the music flowing.

The last series of Stranger Things was pretty great and is probably the reason why they're currently playing Human Cannonball by Butthole Surfers in HMV right now. Nice! 🤘
