Trailer for Empires of the Undergrowth Early Access is out and it's awesome! Well done @SlugDisco - please share and spread the word. Early Access is gonna be a great journey! youtube.com/watch?v=LPFrvBdo…
I've said it before and I'll say it again: @TheBrandyClark must be one of the only people who can write a song about her hometown and for it to resonate so deeply for me and my own, instantly conjuring up nostalgia for an entirely different place. She's a magician.

Absolutely loved @BrennenLeigh's Wind Down Wednesday with Suzy. It reminded me how I never found that home renovation song she did! I've ordered the new album though. Can't wait! Will be slightly disappointed not to have SB's backing vocals though 😂 what a pairing!

This is such a shame to hear about the Epstein Theatre. I think it was @gretchenpeters and @barelywashed that I saw there a few years back. change.org/p/save-epstein-th…
12 years to the day that changed my life in more ways than just music! Happy Wine Women and Song-aversary @gretchenpeters, @matracaberg and Suzy Bogguss!!

I'm recording my thoughts on the masterpiece that is Brandy Clark (by @TheBrandyClark) in a thread because the nature of this album is I can't stop grazing it constantly and it's taking me time to work out in my head just what is just so special about each song.
It's amazing how Northwest is so specific and yet so general. I think anyone who's left the place they grew up in can connect. @TheBrandyClark. Just one of the many amazing songs in this new record!

I've nothing deep to say about Tell Her You Don't Love Her, just that it is like she worked out what the recipe for a favourite melody of mine would be and baked to perfection. Lyrics and scenario possibly most relatable I've come across. Contender for favourite @TheBrandyClark

The only thing I'll say about the beauty that is Take Mine is that if @trishayearwood doesn't record it, she's missing a trick. Bloomin' 'eck. It's like it was written for her!

Beautiful evening of song to round up 12 years of following @gretchenpeters around the country. Tbf 6 of those were gig-less due to babies and COVID but the first 6 made up for those. End of an era, but one that has made my life all the richer.

I won't say how old I was when she first toured, but I know this tour will break some hearts, especially for those who have been there from the beginning. I'm proud I held it together up until When You Are Old. What a journey it has been though. Until next time, guys! ❤️

Also, shout out to @MissRebeccaKemp who I will miss just as much as Gretchen and @barelywashed! What a logistical superstar. Hopefully see you elsewhere on the road, RK! ❤️

Been taking a walk down Twitter memory lane and one of my favourites is @TheBrandyClark and I having a wager she would reach 10k followers by April 2014 up from the 600 she had when we first spoke. I wonder what that number is now? 😁😁
So sorry to hear this. He was such a talented musician and loved that he was a fellow Fifer. 😔 RIP
My dear and old friend Rab Noakes has died suddenly in hospital today. I am shocked. We had so much in common - The Everly Brothers, the Flying Burrito Brothers and an enduring love of songs, particularly traditional music. Sleep well, Rab. May you rest in peace. Bx

This was a fun period of indulgence in my life. Miss being in that world! @gretchenpeters

Knowing what Uruguayan families are like I am now clearly wondering how closely we are connected to @RealMattLucas! Incredibly moving #WDYTYA. Painfully sad but beautifully done.

If there was ever a #WDW worth watching, it's this one. Two of the best people with the best voices and the best...well, with wine. Can't wait to watch!
