"We might imagine that people have always sung like Taylor Swift, or the contestants on Eurovision. But for most of history they didn’t. Singing as we now know it was invented in the 1920s."

A belated "On This Day":
September 22, 2020: I released the single "Swiss Lorraine" for the #Equinox, one of my few attempts at #crooning. This was meant to be a demo for something I envisioned in a style a la #Danzig but I liked it as is.
To celebrate the equinox, the single will be available as a free download through #Halloween. Also streaming on all music services. Download what thou wilt.

Song of the Day: Orville Peck - DEAD OF NIGHT
This is a song that is hard to categorize. I'll give it a try #AltCountry #Psychedelic #Crooning #Surf #Rock
Orville reminds me of a #Gay #Masked #Musical #LoveChild of Lana Del Rey and Chris Isaac. I hope they agree :)
