sandhills music - out now!

weather, writing, wind chimes on cassette tape

My Big Break

good morning ~

just a quick note to let you know that "sandhills music" - the multi-part project we've been publishing here this month - is now available via the Tiny Showcase website, Bandcamp, or wherever you find music ~ I do hope you enjoy:

if you like it, please consider sharing it with someone you love :)

and if you're a premium subscriber to this email and would like a free download, please shoot me a message!

also - there's a really wonderful cassette tape edition that contains all the writing and all the music, limited to 100 copies. Tiny Showcase did an amazing job of printing these long, purple gradient scrolls containing the essays that literally envelop the tape itself, which holds the music. a really cool embodiment of what this newsletter is and a sorta creepy manifestation of scrolling through the Internet.

a photo of the finished cassette:

and here's a photo of me trying to demonstrate how long the thing actually is, haha:

I'd also like to note here that 15% of all profits from this project - sold through either Tiny Showcase or my own Bandcamp page - will benefit the Yellowhammer Fund.

I'll be publishing the fifth and final installment of the project for Thursday's email - see you then, thanks for listening :)
