We’re still thinking about the fun we had at #blackamericanafest in Nola last week. Thank you so much again for having us! @thesuffers.bsky.social next show is Saturday, November 29th at @danelectros with @freeradicalsband and DJ @rootsvibah!
Grab your tickets at: www.stubwire.com/e/36704/thes...
Voting is open now! Thank you @recordingacademy members for your consideration.
It has been an absolute honor to be a part of something so special. The album also features incredible performances from @suefoleyofficial @lurriebell @theroddbland @bobbyrushbluesman @jimmievaughanofficial @ruthiefostermusic @billyfgibbons and more.
The Antone’s 50th Allstars — made up of core members of the club’s longtime house band — were joined by a variety of blues artists to pay tribute to Clifford Antone and Austin’s Home of the Blues.
THE LAST REAL TEXAS BLUES ALBUM is a celebration of Antone’s 50th Anniversary, recorded live-to-tape by GRAMMY® winner @jacobsciba.

Chicago in the summer. 😮💨💕
“SB 37 is going much further in increasing government oversight of what happens in our classes. So I can only imagine the kind of self-censorship, and then the actual censorship that we experience from the government, is just going to be heightened.”
Thank you all for the birthday wishes. I felt the LOVE all weekend. 🥰
I’m really grateful. Just wow. 🤯
"I get why our leaders don’t want just anyone to get their hands on good daycare. Can you imagine how it would ravage our economy if parents had the brain space to remember they already bought a three-pack of hand soap refills instead of staggering from one purchase to the next?"
This project means everything to me, and your support—whether it’s backing the campaign, sharing the page with someone, or spreading the word—makes a massive difference. 🥰

I just launched a Kickstarter campaign to bring my debut solo album to life! I have 45 days to raise $20,000 to fund vinyl + CD production and to hire a PR team that can help get this music out into the world. www.kickstarter.com/projects/kam...

“Do you believe in God? Do you want a family? Do you like dogs, cats, animals? Do you like gambling? Do you like people watching silence or rambling? Please tell me, can you cook? Ever been called a crook? I’m not trying to leave you shook, but tell me, can I talk to you?”

So glad to see someone finally pointing to the elephant in the room with the big neon sign that says ELEPHANT hanging above it and saying, "Hey, that's a fucking elephant!" in The Press; very surprised to see it in the WaPo of all places. Are editors breaking ranks or what?
Thanks to @zachernsttx for including me in his vision. I’ll never forget this, and what an honor it was to sing Barbara Lynn and Miss Lavelle’s songs. Once the air date is confirmed, I’ll share all the info! 🤩🥳😍

How to have the best day ever in Houston, according to @kamfranklin.bsky.social of @thesuffers.bsky.social www.houstonchronicle.com/projects/bes...
ICE says it is investigating the cause of death of 44-year-old Marie Ange Blaise in a Florida detention center on Friday. A local congresswoman says Blaise had complained of chest pains "for hours."
Shoutout to the businesses, artists, people, and spaces that make this city what it is.❤️
Thank you to the Houston Chronicle for asking me about how to have the best day in Houston! Honestly, I could have written a whole book about this topic. Check it out my answers here:
