@fcommanders.bsky.social are headed to Europe for the first time in 4 weeks, playing 18 shows across 6 countries! Can’t wait; see you new friends very soon!

Congrats to @denimclature.bsky.social on the release of the new Passenger Pigeon album! Get it!

@fcommanders.bsky.social are playing Reggie’s in Chicago this Friday, 4/10!

Please join us this evening at 6:30 PDT to listen to Another New Low for the first time together!

That’s awesome to hear, thank you!

Particularly the pre-choruses where I reference personal losses, but in less direct ways than I sometimes do. As has been the trend with these recent live-at-home vids, here’s the second verse! Harmony footage for fun! 3/3

Named after my Polaroid, the song is about what it’s been like to allow my own lens to change over the course of my life, all the while documenting things with that trusty camera. This one sounds happier than it is at parts. It’s a major key composition with some minor key truths tucked within. 2/3

ONE-STEP CLOSE-UP wasn’t a single from ADULT CHILD, but it’s been cool to hear from people over the last 9 months that it connects for them! 1/3

@fcommanders.bsky.social are playing TN Brew Works in Nashville tonight, 4/4! Only hometown show of 2026! 7 PM, see you there!

Felt like singing this one! Springtime seems to bring me back to my solo work. My ADULT CHILD album was written, recorded, and released across various Spring seasons. Here’s the second verse of FIRSTBORN with a harmony that isn’t on the album, but I was in the mood for it this time around!

I’m never kidding about R&B, tracking vocals, or Mariah. Fun fact about me: my Jazzmaster is named Mariah ✨

“On Learning to Be Proud of My Music as a Firstborn Adult Child Daughter”: An Essay by Buick Audra for Women's History Month - Atwood Magazine Grammy Award-winning artist Buick Audra shares her experiences with gender, birth order, familial roles, and self-regard – some of the major themes explored on her forthcoming project, 'ADULT CHILD,' ...

Had a few people ask about whether I'll ever write companion books for ADULT CHILD and BEAR, as I did for CONVERSATIONS WITH MY OTHER VOICE and MASS. The answer is no, but there are a few essays! This is one of them. Enjoy, and happy Women's History Month! 4/4
atwoodmagazine.com/whm2509-buic...

The two albums are sisters to me, outlining my experiences with identities I can't remove, trying to outrun some of what was handed to me, and being on the side of feminism even when it doesn't always feel like it's on mine. 3/4

Since then, my other project, @fcommanders.bsky.social released our album, BEAR, a project I wrote about being on the outside of womanhood all my life and trying to find community in other areas. 2/4

Hey friends! This time last year, when I was just starting to release work from my ADULT CHILD album, I had an essay published in Atwood Magazine as part of their Women's History Month Series. 1/4

Here’s the riff for BLUE by FC (released 3 years ago today 🎉) through my usual sounds, then the pedal boost, and then BUGAWK, in that order. The phone mic doesn’t do it justice, as my tone and volume tend to melt iPhone mics, but it’s very cool. Thank you, friend!

Still have to see what my solo rig sounds like with it, but this is fun and I’m stoked to have it!

I’ve built a handful of GCI pedals that other people own, but I’ve never had one on my board. Now I do!

New pedal! Ballou sent me this GCI Crimson Cock pedal for my birthday so I’m checking it out with my live rigs for @fcommanders.bsky.social! When activated, it seems to boost and brighten the mids, and when set to BUGAWK mode, there’s a noticeable beef / crisis that happens - which of course I love.

Thrilled to share this updated schedule for the FIRST EVER EUROPEAN TOUR FOR Friendship Commanders! May is so soon!
🌿🎉🌿

It’s ’speak or be spoken for.’ I choose the former. See you at the shows!
