Today seems like a day for lots of @gangoffour.bsky.social. #EveryDayMusic

Not guaranteed I'm afraid, but let's hope. #EveryDayMusic

I love food and I enjoy cooking. I occasionally make a meal that people enjoy. This from the last column of one of my favourite writers sums up my experience: “Often, good food takes a while to cook and sometimes it requires skill”.

"Just like Pagliacci did I try to keep my surface hid" Happy birthday to Smokey Robinson, who is 85 today. A great voice and lyrical words brought a touch of class to #Motown hits, such as Tears Of A Clown, which hit UK number one in 1970, three years after it was recorded youtu.be/tcd9N62nOLg?...

Lovely review for @thequietus.com of an album that has lots of bands that were one of the scenes of my teens and early adulthood.

Oh well it'll be another year playing the 2015 version then 🤣

Second gig of the week. This time it was seeing the wonderful @dublonde.bsky.social at the Scala. The love in the room was palpable. #GigGang

Top night at The George Tavern last night - Ewe and Friends, My Fat Pony and Johnnie Carwash were all on top form. Would highly recommend seeing any and all if you can. #GigGang

Kristin Hersh speaks with Paste about how music can be a living organism and Throwing Muses' 11th studio album, 'Moonlight Concessions.' www.pastemagazine.com/music/throwi...

Would like to state that I woke up five mins before recording…hear my grumpy and groggy thoughts about England’s trip to Australia 🙃 More coming next week!

Started my day with this banger of an album by #SahraHaglan from last year. Some #desertblues matched with a 60s garage band organ sound. #EveryDayMusic
