Very excited to announce that I will be curating my first show next week as part of Greenpoint Open Studios. I will be there selling books, prints and other fun things!  Info below: Random Fiesta: 80s Made 90s Raised - a Greenpoint Open Studios group show of millennial artists curated by Laura June Kirsch. On June 10th and 11th from 12 to 6 pm, Bechdel Project (252 Green St), as part of their Community Space Program, will host the work of five artists who have been shaped by being a part of the last generation to experience life pre-internet. Each brings a unique, playful style and flavor to the show. Featuring work by LPX, Miles Shelton, Mary Shah, Russ Rubin and work from Romantic Lowlife Fantasies (get your copy here).

It's not black and white

Global warming is a contentious topic, but it really shouldn’t be. I’m not going to get into any debates here with anyone regarding climate change, but I will say that I’m thankful that so many artists and musicians have put it upon themselves to spread songs of wisdom when it comes to this critical dilemma. The latest such emissary to allude to the crisis is Lizzy Plapinger and her alternative solo project LPX. The MS MR singer and Neon Gold Records owner, who has two EPs under her belt and has toured with the likes of Haim and MØ, wrote new single Global Warming herself, alongside BROODS’ Georgia Nott. Global Warming was also co-written and produced by GRAMMY Award winning Tommy English. It’s a restlessly churning and vitally thrumming alt anthem with shades of MS MR slicing through its complex arrangement. Global Warming might recognize what faces us on a global scale, but it’s also a modern underdog power anthem, a determined heater for the resolute who choose not to give up on themselves. LPX will be on tour this fall supporting Marina (and the Diamonds) in September and X Ambassadors in October. Stream/download Global Warming, here.
