kevin atwater released his debut album last night and i couldn't be more enthused. beautiful guitar driven songs and immersive storytelling. i have cried so much today. i don't think i've ever related to a song in this way, let alone a whole album. the turmoil of the gay experience is so viscerally portrayed. listen to this album and catch him on his upcoming tour if you can.
i hope you are well, friend.

my friend recommended his song “Carthage” to me a couple years ago and since then, his name’s been on my radar but i never really took the time to properly dive into his discography until tonight. the weather getting cooler here has me craving the lush and warm sonic landscape of guitar music and this album is just what i’ve been looking for. it’s some of the most magical music i’ve heard in a long time…
i also recommend wholeheartedly thanking your friends for music recommendations that you really resonate with, even if you listen to it years after they recommend it, and even if thanking them sounds or seems sappy. recommending music is such a special and sacred thing and i always like to hear when someone connects with something i‘ve sent them, whether i talk to this person every day or once every few years. sharing music is choosing to love and we should spread that love all around, all the time <3

I've worked in touring for the past 6ish years (minus the pandemic period) but this is my first time dabbling in the creative side of an artist's album rollout and I'm so proud of what we made.
Along with other tasks (creative and non-creative) not listed I had the pleasure of doing the creative social marketing for this album and I'm so proud of what we accomplised.
The album title is jarring as fuck and if you have no context to Duckwrth or who he is as a person, as well as a someone who's been hurt by a fuckboy (let's be honest who hasn't??) and also just hates men (bc in this day and age who doesn't and if you're a man offended by that you should DEFINITELY look into that) chances are this may not appeal to you.
However what I will say is this. This album is a headfirst dive into an exploration of unhinged and lustful desire, generational curses passed down from family, and the tumultuos journey to self love. All themes and situations we encounter and that make up the human experience. It's a conceptual album that is painfully relatable.
When Duck first played the intro track for me sometime last year, it pissed me off so bad I started shedding some tears. Mostly bc I've related to being the girl that's entertaining a guy who has no respect for me or himself and as time has gone by I can also come to terms that I've been a f•ckgirl at times bc of past traumas etc.
It's no easy feat to make a body of work that airs your shit and your family's shit out as well as publicly come to terms with the fuckery you've done and the pain you've caused to others and put it out into the world for the public to perceive and build their own perceptions or interpretations on your work but Duckwrth has done just that and created a body of work that I hope will ignite conversations between men who are trying to be better regardless of the hand they were dealt and take ownership. I'm so proud of this human for doing that and very grateful to be trusted and brought along on the creative process of this work.
Working with him and his manager X has been fun, stressful (at times), exhausting, and very rewarding. I love these two down and I can't wait to see what comes of this project.
If you have a moment go listen and stream All American F•ckboy. Share your favorite track if you'd like, I'm curious and would love to know :)

i didn't get this alex g album when it came out but now i do. i went to the beach yesterday to decompress and something made me think of the song cross the sea, which i remember as being most people's least favorite song on the album, or at least their least favorite single. i kinda liked it then and i love it now. i listened to the whole album after that and it's the only thing that's been able to cut thru the static recently.
alex g is just so singular. i listened to him a lot during a very bad summer in new york and then right after that he had his weird 15 minutes of tiktok fame and i felt far away from him. that's when this album came out. i think something in me knew i needed him back and i'm glad i can have this album. give it a listen with an open heart.

i watched it last night and i cannot stop talking about it. cole sprouse's physical comedy paired with kathryn newtons stellar line delivery makes this such a wonderful movie. so funny and camp and i had to rewatch it immediately. beautiful set design and directing. a love letter to the eighties and horror movies as a genre. the soundtrack is also just perfect. id really recommend you watch this film!!
i hope you are well, friend.
