Bringin' it BackwardsInterview with Mt. JoyWe had the pleasure of interviewing Mt. Joy over Zoom video.Mt. Joy recently released their third full-length offering, Orange Blood, along with the latest single, “Evergreen.” The track boasts upbeat guitar curls around a punk-y groove before colliding with an intoxicating refrain. The track’s accompanying music video stars The Office star Creed Bratton, a personal friend of the band who last fall, joined the band on stage at The Greek Theater in Los Angeles. In the video, Creed sets off on a journey to prove it is never too late to chase what makes you happy.2022-07-2648 min

Mt. Joy channel bright, bold, and brilliant energy in their music. The Philadelphia quintet—Matt Quinn [vocals, guitar], Sam Cooper [guitar], Sotris Eliopoulos [drums], Jackie Miclau [keys, piano], and Michael Byrnes [bass]—have quietly and carefully evolved since forming back in 2016. Two years later, their self-titled debut, Mt. Joy, yielded “Silver Lining,” which eclipsed 104 million Spotify streams and counting. Anchored by favorites such as “Strangers,” Rearrange Us arrived to widespread critical applause during 2020.The Line of Best Fit praised it as “aiming for arena-highs,” while Atwood Magazine christe...2022-04-0755 min

There's Something Wrong with ME!A EulogyOn November 5, 2021 The Honorable Michael Powell delivered a stirring, emotional and very personal eulogy for his father’s life during a memorial service at Washington’s National Cathedral.

There's Something Wrong with ME!The Atrocity of Love: A Serial Novel Love LetterI cannot say the fever has broken. Today is another bright, cloudless day and a start, in earnest, to the ‘new year,’ both S’hanah Tovah on the Jewish Calendar and a start to the post-Labor Day scholastic year in the United States, though many begin as early as mid-August in the South and central states. It’s symbolism. Perhaps we in the USA are irrevocably aligned with the Jewish State??

There's Something Wrong with ME!In Dog We TrustI realized this week that my real relationship with The Beast began for both of us as middle-age crept in, males seeking social stimulation and companionship. It was concurrent with a reclamation of your and my friendship yet also wholly independent.He wasn't neglected by any means but, for reasons I think you have spelled out over time, he was longing in the same way I have been for contact and renewed purpose, both lost in the fire when his world was somewhat upended, his loyalty never quite returned in kind if not wholly abandoned.As...2021-10-0307 min
