Happiest Amanda. If I never accomplish anything else in this life…I got to introduce two of my biggest heroes - Judy Blume and Esther Perel - after my secret show in NYC Monday night. I couldn’t believe they’d never met.

Perhaps the only larger accomplishment was leading them and the theater in a certain Lilly Allen sing-along song from “West End Girl”. You have not lived til you’ve seen that, and I saw it.

The show was tiny, just a handful of patrons / friends at the The Laurie Beechman Theatre, booked last-minute so I could workshop some of my new songs in a real room, get some feedback, feel safe.

I’ve known and admired these two women - both writers, both lightning rods - for so long. Playing new unfinished songs for these powerhouses was honestly slightly scary.

But they both make me feel so safe. Not because they have some cliché maternal way of protecting me or “validating” me - they can’t - but because they both remind me, day after day, that help is not on the way….not from some man, some partner, some publisher, some savior; not from the industry or the press, and not - certainly - from the court of public opinion. Never.

Help is on the way, they have taught me, when you face the emotional truth and get creatively compassionate. When you resist pitying yourself, pick up your pen, and write the truth.

So, I wrote. It’s time to get back to work, time to carry these songs further into the world. They’re almost ready. I can’t wait.

Judy/Esther plugs: If you haven’t seen “The Invite” or read about Esther’s involvement in it, run don’t walk. (I saw it at The Coolidge in Boston the other night and cannot stop raving). Also: read “The State of Affairs”.

If you want to really know about Judy Blume, skip the memoir; read her novels “In The Unlikely Event” and “Summer Sisters”. You’ll find Judy there.

So much love.

Thank you to Peter Dean, my hero, for producing this beautiful night, to Lance Horne for hosting us, massive thanks to Amanda WouldGo & Rebecca Sherman for helping at the show; and tearful hugs to Michael & Tom D’Angora & Brent Michael Jones (the Beechman is my new favorite haven) for taking such beautiful, beautiful care of us.

Theater family…forever…🎭♥️🎹🔥

PRIDE 2026
Irene The Alien stopped by NYC to host Q***r Trivia, presented by one of our Employee Resource Groups

We laughed, we learned, we threw shade. It was fun to flex my pop culture and history trivia chops; I’m a winner baby, I beat out my colleagues and was bestowed the grand prize: bragging rights.

Irene was a total delight, and I am pleased as punch to have made her laugh. It’s a joy to welcome creators’ to our office, and even more so when you’ve welcomed them (figuratively) into your living room for years.

The greatest use of my free will as an adult is going to see Jimmy Gnecco of Ours sing live. A privilege that I don’t take for granted, because as a teenager when I was first falling in love with his music, it wasn’t so easy. In college, I used to download all the live recording bootlegs, however sh*tty they may have been, and pain to experience the music, the covers, the rarities live. So whenever I do get the chance to be in the room with these songs, like I said I just don’t take it for granted.

I hope my photographs capture even the slightest glimpse of the power and tenderness that is Jimmy Gnecco’s voice and stage presence.

This week I was in Toronto for a quick work trip and boy am I glad I made it back to NYC in time to head on over and catch Noun support Gladie at TV Eye.

There’s always been so much power and thunder in ’s guitar shredding and wailing vocals and it always feels special to witness her music fill up any room she plays, regardless of its size. Over the last 13 years I’ve seen her play all sorts of venues with all sorts of bands and each and every time I’m just blown away by her musicianship. There’s so much that’s rough out there but amongst it all, I’m glad to be alive in a timeline where I can walk into a local rock club and bear witness to a generational talent.

Night 2 at
Brooklyn, NY
December 12, 2025

Earlier this year I saw Cursive open up for Bright Eyes at the Brooklyn Paramount. I dubbed this the year of Saddle Creek, swooning to the bands that soundtracked my high school years and continue to be on rotation in my music library over the course of the last 20 years. I smiled as I came across their music in my old CD collection, which I retrieved this summer from the house I grew up in. I laughed to myself when I wore my Cursive shirt to Rilo Kiley’s reunion tour. I was content. 🎵 THIS is the latest from Saddle Creek…

And then, Cursive announced a headlining club tour to close out the year. I had to get tickets as soon as they went on sale, I wanted to be up front and I wanted to photograph them again. I wanted to time travel through the music to the way it made me feel when I was listening to them for the first time.

I first photographed Cursive in 2015 when they played Saint Vitus during their Ugly Organ anniversary shows. I was fairly new to concert photography at the time and I remember being so happy with my captures but it literally took me a decade to share them. (Check my grid to see). So, it was important to me that this time around, I get them up quickly.
