a discovery playlist featuring weekly top 10 music releases
Lorde- Man Of The Year: Such a beautiful song about exploring gender identity and androgyny! I am absolutely living for Lorde summer.
Jake Minch- Fingers and Clothes: This song punches me in the gut in every way that is good. The production on this song is insane (s/o Tony Berg) and I will not sleep peacefully until his album is released.
Mt. Joy, Gigi Perez- In The Middle: Folk collab of the YEAR this is such a lovely pairing, makes me want to drive through the desert.
P.S. Vote for the album you are most excited for at the bottom of this email!


all the biggest things that happened online this week
Kesha performances are life changing!
Noah Kahan debuted some unreleased music last week.
I would get so flustered on Street Hearts (especially if Lucy Dacus was the guest).
The prospect of new Rina Sawayama music is AMAZING!
The vibes of Lizzy McAlpine’s pop up spring event in NYC were perfect.
“Mine and Towa’s house is the lesbian frat house.” + she’s on GAYDARRR this entire section could be about Reneé tbh.
Concert content, Chappell is stunning!
Wiped socials, show in NYC on Wednesday, is King Princess cooking?
Check out this awesome newsletter that gives you 7 recent and decent songs.


things that i’ve been super into lately that i need to share with you guys
My roadtrip playlist supply is unlimited … Here's the perfect soundtrack for a drive through some rolling hills at golden hour.
I am OBSESSED with this Tobie top from Anthro… such a fun and unique piece that could be styled up or down.
I came across this influencer who is doing makeup like famous painters would’ve done it and I am so intrigued… her Botticelli is absolutely ethereal


movies, tv shows, and actors on my radar right now
I saw Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning this weekend and it was a super fun watch. I have TBH never seen a mission impossible movie, but I still felt a ton of nostalgia while watching it. It just has that 2000s movie feel and the action was incredible.
Resurfacing this thread of LGBTQ+ films with non-white protagonists & where you can find them online, some of the streaming services might be out of date sadly!
“Nobody Wants This” season 2 is set to air in October, and I actually really want this.


BOTW: Caroline Kingsbury
Caroline is a Florida Native, LA based queer indie pop STAR! She recently toured with The Pom Pom squad and released a killer single “Shock Treatment”. You may have heard her song “Kissing Someone Else” on Tik Tok or her song “Blurry Now” on the Netflix show Forever. If you haven’t heard of her yet, it’s high time to jump on board! Caroline plays ATG DC in 115 days!
What does life look like for you right now?

I’m just getting ready for my festivals this summer so just a lot of planning and coordinating and getting the band ready. About to play some Pride shows and hanging out at the pool as much as I possibly can!
Ins and outs lately? 👑📅🫶
Ins: loose fitting jorts ….. I had never owned a pair and now I am never going back. Wearing a tie on my head as a headband. Grimacing everytime I see a cybertruck.
Outs: JK Rowling/Harry Potter for obvious transphobic reasons. High waisted jeans … I’m never going back to high waisted jeans ever - thank you Gen Z Tik Tok for freeing me. Feeling competitive with other ppl…like noooooooooo
What’s your favorite hobby right now? What’s a hobby you want to get into this year? 🛹🧘♀️📷
My favorite hobby right now is watching pseudoscience History Channel shows (for example Ancient Aliens). I’d like to get into reading again!
Fashion pieces you’re interested in lately? 🧢👗🧣
I’ll never give up my flip-flops. You can’t make me! A collared shirt and tie can go with anything. And colorful items in general!
Piece of media that’s influenced you 🎼🖼️🎬
Most recently the movie, Shock Treatment. For my new single we took a lot of inspo from the Rocky Horror sequel for the storytelling and visuals.
If you could have any superpower, what would it be and why? 🦸♀️⚡️🕸️
I could go two directions with this. One is healing sickness and wounds (that would be my selfless superpower). My selfish superpower would be never having to think about what to wear and just appear in my body.
Any interesting/silly/fun recent tour anecdotes? 🎆🤪🙈
When I went to Roswell, we made it to the alien gift shop with 10 minutes to spare. I’m a huge fan of aliens in general so when we got there I was so hyped to get a bunch of merch. I ended up giving the guy that owns the store a signed vinyl of my new EP. So if you’re ever in Roswell make sure and stop by The Invasion Station and you’ll see my record on display.
What artists are on repeat for you right now? 🎧📻💿

Are you excited to play All Things Go? 👏💖☁️
I am beyond excited because I’ve been wanting to play this festival since 2017 when I first moved to LA and I saw MUNA was playing the festival back then. It’s been a bucket list item for me and my career. I have years of DMs that I’ve DM’ed All Things Go “please let me play your festival this year!” It also feels like the gayest festival and it makes me really excited to play.
Where do you see yourself in 10 years—musically and personally? 🎤👶🎼
Touring the world and making music in my house! I’d love to have my own studio in my house. I would love to produce and write with other people in addition to getting a lot of time off to create and make music.

What upcoming album are you most excited about? |
