50 tunes for 50 years: The Wannadies

So I kinda forgot to have kids. Making it to fifty years old knowing some poor soul won’t inherit these unique genes is, well, a blessing, I guess but in my world filled with the best of nieces and nephews (and honorary nieces and nephews), those days of regrets are few. But there is, of course, the other kind of family I have chosen to … Continue reading 50 tunes for 50 years: The Wannadies

50 tunes for 50 years: The The

Mending a broken heart with Al Green. Swishing to Salsoul. Losing it to Frankie Knuckles … Continue reading 50 tunes for 50 years: Dionne Warwick

Queer Songbook & Traumfrau present International Women’s Day Mixtape

For this autistic lass, the promise I made to myself as I entered my 50th year was not an easy one. Say yes to things that scare you. Say yes when you would have said no. So 2019 will now be known as the year this Wildblood said yes. To festivals, to gigs, to new challenges, to my bike and to those random email requests … Continue reading Queer Songbook & Traumfrau present International Women’s Day Mixtape
