I released a new song, “Pictures of Flowers”, as part of Mexican Summer’s Looking Glass compilation. It features Meg Duffy (Hand Habits) on slide guitar, Jarvis Taveniere on bass, percussion, and mellotron, and me on vocals and acoustic guitar. We all recorded our parts remotely from our home studios during Quarantine I wrote this song at the beginning of the Quar, and it speaks to the fear and uncertainty I felt in those early days, as well as the clarity gained and realignment in priorities I’ve been experiencing over the last few months.
100% of Bandcamp profits from “Pictures of Flowers” will be donated to Harriet’s Apothecary, an intergenerational Brooklyn based healing village led by Black Cis Women, Queer and Trans healers, artists, health professionals, magicians, activists and ancestors. The intention of Harriet’s Apothecary is to continue the rich healing legacy of abolitionist, community nurse and herbalist Harriet Tubman.
