Should we write a song about this truck? You just know a beauty like this has a lot stories to tell! And it’s parked outside the Physical Graffiti (yep, Led Zep cover!) building on what can only be called the rock n roll block in NYC— St. Marks Place! Rolling Stones shot #waitingonafriend there and #jeffbuckley and many others had residencies down the block at #sine! Tell us your thoughts on the comments! It would be a free community collab! https://www.instagram.com/p/CoqVq8NMsKc/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

So many songs we could write with these new #lovewords! #Repost @nytimes with @use.repost ・・・ The way we talk about relationships has drastically changed in recent years. To describe yourself as single and in search of a relationship is almost too simple of a label in 2023. The way we seek romantic connections, especially with the influence of social media and dating apps, has naturally altered our behaviors and language around dating. Although there are dozens of new dating terms being used today, we spoke to a sex and relationship expert with the dating app Bumble as well as a psychotherapist to help us narrow down the top dating terms that you’ll need to know. https://www.instagram.com/p/CopiUY9rX1M/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

While featured artists do get an honorarium, you know what we charge, so you KNOW it's not a lot of money, esp compared to the amount of time each artist puts into it! And Gary puts his whole heart into making these really special songs! Please help us support independent musicians and show Gary how grateful we are for writing this amazing song with us!
