TX to FL
Traveling back to FL has had some ups and downs. Iβve been learning to roll with circumstances more. Sometimes you get to a venue and no one promoted the show and the local bands donβt show up. Sometimes you play to 10 people and are filled with so much joy. Sometimes you spend an extra day in Houston. Sometimes you forget to follow up and confirm the show. Sometimes you forget that you have a six hour drive. Sometimes you get fancy food with friends in NOLA. Sometimes you play a Thursday night in Pensacola and it feels like a Saturday and everyone is glowing and everything is amazing. Sometimes you forget about time zones. Sometimes you play in the city you were born in with all your friends. Sometimes you canβt find your passport. Sometimes you say a prayer and it gets answered. Sometimes it wonβt be. Sometimes you get to sing by yourself in the car. Sometimes you talk on the phone. Sometimes you talk in person. Sometimes other artists remind you of how important it is to be creating something and supporting one another. Sometimes itβs lonely. Sometimes itβs home. Sometimes things are really easy. Sometimes you hustle and nothing comes to fruition. Iβm learning the importance of perseverance.
Right now, there are some rad bands touring and hustling: Sasha Conda, Terror Pigeon, Chiffon, Floral Print
If any of them are playing in your city, check them out. You wonβt be disappointed. And any homies Iβve forgotten to mention, keep going out there and playing shows. Youβre radical and youβre inspiring and youβre important. Stay awesome forever. Iβll be updating with some of the music that has been keeping me sane on the road. Until then, check out the above bands and buy some merch from them and see them play.
