It was a real pleasure to join Alex Green for the second time as a guest on @emberspodcast. We talked for a while about a lot of different things, including my new album 𝘚𝘰𝘯𝘨𝘴 𝘖𝘧 𝘋𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘭𝘢𝘴 𝘈𝘯𝘥 𝘓𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘭, which Alex says is “a moving and stirring homage to solidarity and artistic kinship.” Hear the podcast on your favorite platform or by finding Alex Green Online on Soundcloud.

My son turns me on to new music all the time. This is him playing guitar and me singing a @dominicfike song “Superstar Shit”. Hope you all are finding some sweet moments. This was one for me. Xoxoinara

So, I took all this footage of the graffiti in LA. I think it’s such an interesting time in LA. We are struggling as a city, and really the whole country is struggling… but I think there is something very beautiful and interesting happening too. All this amazing graffiti all over the city. I’m sure many of you don’t like it, and I can understand that, but I think it’s so beautiful and I always imagine the danger that these artists have to put themselves in to create this art, with full knowledge that it will probably be painted over by another artist, or with beige paint by the city. I’m not sure why, but when I listened to this song, ‘Ice Cream in Bed,’ and thought about what visuals would go with it, it made me think about the art on the LA freeways. It’s on 𝘚𝘰𝘯𝘨𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘋𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘭𝘢𝘴𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘓𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘭. The link to hear the whole album is in my bio!
