I took some photos of Adam Lion, Tashi Dorji + Ryan Oslance, and Maidens of Delos last weekend at AyurPrana Listening Room. Asheville's experimental music scene is pretty incredible. ashevillestages.com/music/throug...

I've had the fortune of interviewing a number of icons in my life, but few, if any, have been as personally meaningful as this one. Go catch @peterhookthelight.bsky.social on tour, and if you're in Asheville, see them at The Orange Peel on June 3. ashevillestages.com/music/interv...

I've got a number of interviews in the works for Asheville Stages. Some of the others are bigger names, but I think this one with experimental vibraphonist Adam Lion is particularly insightful. ashevillestages.com/music/interv...

Caught Spellling at The Grey Eagle and it was stunning — like Minnie Riperton fronting a ’90s alt-rock band in a David Lynch dream. Wrote about it & took photos for Asheville Stages. @sacredbones.bsky.social ashevillestages.com/music/review...

the thing I hate most about that rfk quote is that autistic lives have value and worth and beauty and dignity whether they are able to do the things other people do or not. no one is defined by ability or lack thereof and to frame divergence as lack is monster stuff, utterly godless
