“don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t do something. make your own victories. make your own mistakes.”   
>>------>joan jett

“i believe that we, that this planet, hasn't seen its golden age. everybody says its finished ... art's finished, rock and roll is dead, god is dead. fuck that! this is my chance in the world. i didn't live back there in mesopotamia, i wasn't there in the garden of eden, i wasn't there with emperor han, i'm right here right now and i want now to be the golden age ...if only each generation would realize that the time for greatness is right now when they're alive ... the time to flower is now.”

THE IDLER WHEEL IS WISER: FIONA APPLE











>>-----> listen to fiona apple's new album, The Idler Wheel is Wiser Than the Driver of the Screw and Whipping Cords Will Serve You More Than Ropes Will Ever Do, before it is officially released. to say that i'm excited to see what she has come up with after waiting nearly seven years since her last album, would be an understatement. always daring. i admire her boldness. i admire the commitment and her vulnerability in her art form. so enough with the talking. let's get to listening.

WE ARE STARDUST: JONI MITCHELL













to be a witness to the birth and rise of this star must have been something special. a folk angel with the sweet voice of a morning songbird. i remember growing up, my mother putting on joni early sunday mornings, when the mountain air was still cool and crisp. i would often attempt to emulate her sound and always failed miserably. i wish i could have seen her strumming her guitar, her golden hair shimmering in the sunlight, hundreds of thousands of people watching at woodstock. still beloved and beautiful. sweet joni mitchell.

THE OCEAN BREATHES SALTY: PLAYLIST SEVEN


//// stumbled upon this old photo of sailor jerry doing what he does best. i love this picture. from his horn rimmed glasses to the pipe dangling from his mouth. this man is legendary. of course sailor jerry is known for a very specific style of tattoo imagery, and it always leads back to the men at sea. that vision inspired this playlist. songs about the sea, the gambler. the deep dark blue. the calm and the storm. i long to watch the waves roll in as the light glistens off the surface like a million silver coins in the sun. for now i'll settle for songs about the salty air ////
