I'm excited to announce that the video for my song "Photobooth" which was directed by my sister, Alix Angelis won three awards last night in the International Independent Music Awards!

I released my cover of "Wheels of Laredo" on Aug 7th! Tim Hanseroth, Phil Hanseroth, & Brandi Carlile wrote this beautiful song which is on Tanya Tucker’s Grammy winning album “While I’m Living” & The Highwomen albums from 2019. The lyrics have haunting imagery of love, loss, longing & history. Jamboozie takes place in Laredo, TX to celebrate a battle in 1898 between white men & Native Americans who won. The mayor gave the Chief the key to the city as a sign of unconditional surrender. It's the backdrop for many juxtapositions now. The drums of both sides are represented echoing through the track and underscore a more current story and personal inner battle. 

The colors of the cover art are the colors included on the flags of the Yaqui Tribe, Texas, and Mexico and the key is the key to the city from the state of Texas representing open gates and partnership. 

Produced by Billy Lefler

LISTEN ON SPOTIFY

It came out on June 12th, but I just wanted to make sure it was on here so you all know about it! While in deep quarantine, I recorded this slower, stripped-down, more melancholy version of "Ghost" from That Siren, Hope, to go with the mood ;) This is the first thing I've released that I recorded myself! It's very simple but I'm still pretty excited I was able to do it. Enjoy! And please share <3
