Still Adventures will be released on vinyl and digital late summer/early autumn on Little Cloud Records (Dandy Warhols, Sun Atoms, Firefriend).
Still Adventures was recorded with Gregg Williams (producer: Dandy Warhols, engineer: Blitzen Trapper); and features musicians from a wide array of Portland bands, including Roselit Bone, Shady Cove, and others. Its 9 songs encompass the thin edge between melancholy and hope. It is a sonic opposite of Lost Realities, focusing on studio sounds, and is influenced as equally by Memphis and Nashville as it is by David Lynch, Slowdive, and Nine Inch Nails.  

Select press:

 "A haunting, dreamy track fit for the Roadhouse on Twin Peaks ...
lingers in my head with its cinematic feeling and emotive pull."
Obscure Sound (on Movie Ending)

"A genuine sense of epic to this sound."
Jangle Pop Hub (on Dark Fountain)

"Should help ease the pain that many of us are feeling."
Oregon Music News (on Suddenly Tamed)

Performance:

The live band features Erik Wisloff-Menteer (Blitzen Trapper) ; Rhea Morais (The Black Doors) ; Kyle Cregan (Wildflowers, Smilepile) ; and Leah Heuser. 

Live alumni includes Tobias Berblinger (Roselit Bone, Kassi Valezzi) ; Sarah Nienaber (Candace, Shady Cove, Blue Tomorrow) ; Dirk Sincler ; and Christa Buckland

In July 2023, it was my pleasure to open a small curated book shop in NE Portland.

I have had two stories published in small journals, and am in the process of re-building my writing practice.
 
My writing style is lightly influenced by what I consider "contemplative fiction", such as Rachel Cusk, WG Sebald, Beckett (to some extent), as well as current events, art, cinema, and nature.
