Half Gringa

just popping on to say that my saxophone waveforms look like lil bunnies 🐰

I’ll be there with my mom!

very few things feel good, but playing music and gathering together still does. the band is playing The Athenaeum's Strictly Chicago series next Friday, Jan 30 please come out and we will make it worth your while: athenaeumcenter.org/events/2026/...

i’m at the bar at Lula. i’m reading a book by one of the founders of The Toast. i’m drinking amaro and crushing a vegan crudite. the sofia coppola marie antoinette soundtrack is playing. i’m fifteen, i’m 23, i’m 34; time is a laminated pastry, dirty bathwater, confetti

grateful to the Postock team for doing a fest in rural Wisconsin during Lollapalooza weekend… truly ready to head for the hills

i will carry you and your light It is the last night Evan and I are in Athens, and we are desperately looking for a restaurant that no longer exists.

💗

I just realized that I have been writing songs and playing shows for 10 years.

spent eleven hours at O’Hare yesterday and did not get to where I was going. a theme of late! perhaps the universe will cut me a break soon but I doubt it 🙃

rolling back into Chicago after an eleven hour drive / tour listening to WBEZ and boy did the vibes shift horribly

bleak fucking outlook for our stupid species

Playing NYC tonight with Kitba in the Village! Full band, early show, come see us if you’re around: www.eventbrite.com/e/half-gring...

gathered in Albuquerque this weekend to celebrate one my dearest friends, Evan, who died after a year and a half of living with an aggressive cancer. holy cow I love him so much, he taught me how to make art bravely and was such a champion of my music. i will try my best for you sweet boy 💗

thanks for coming!
