🪅 February 2024 update

First, a quick housekeeping note: I’ve moved this newsletter’s hosting from Substack to beehiiv. If you’re reading this in your inbox, you don’t have to do anything—all subscribers were automatically moved over. Thanks!

Next: it’s Bandcamp Friday! This means that today (Friday, February 2 until midnight Pacific time), Bandcamp waives their fee and artists get a little more revenue from their albums purchased on Bandcamp. At the bottom of this issue I’ve linked to recent releases from Bay Area musicians Sean Krazit and Charles Chen, along with both of my albums by the Pacific Six.
