#OMG the #Goorin train keeps rolling! @goorinbrospikeplace are pretty much the sweetest yet! @aaronjshay, @thesarahshay and I had a wonderful time! If you wanna know why we’re smiling it’s because we all had some “naughty he hes” which Is what I shall call dirty jokes from now on! #badjokes #naughtyhehes #hats #busking #Seattle #BestDayEver

What a great day! Did you guys know that Goorin Brothers hat shops hire musicians to play in or outside their shops, and then the musicians get free hats for their trouble? Great hats AND support for the arts: what more could you ask?

This is what it sounds like when I don’t know what the requested cover is supposed to sound like! More ridiculous covers coming up day after tomorrow in my next @concertwindow, click here for details: https://www.concertwindow.com/9895-strangely

Well, I know one person who will be receiving an Intro to Prince mix the second he gets home.

I look very #french here. Photo by @thesarahshay - full image on her twitter account I didn’t mean to crop you out, @iamstrangely! #Picnic #bonnet #gunnesax #friendship (at ravenna park)

I bet you think this is a pretty adorable photo, right? Well BRACE YOURSELVES, because it’s about to get even CUTER and MORE TWEE.

Eliza fans, meet therealstrangely.

Omg! We just hit 100 Backers!! I am overwhelmed with thankful #JoyCompactor feelings!

Classic.

@iamstrangely and I at the #Bellingham #FarmersMarket last #Saturday. It was entirely too hot out to busk. Next #musicaladventure, Oregon Country Fair! #thingshappen #travel #babesicle #violin #accordion #SongsForSailing

Look at these goddamn cuties. Like something right out of Mary Poppins.

ALBUM GIVEAWAY!

Hey tumblr folks, I’ve got a kickstarter running to fund the printing of my second album! I want to make sure as many people as possible hear about it, so why not do a giveaway?

All you have to do is reblog or like this post, and be following me! (You can reblog it more than once if you like for more chances to win, but how many times your followers will tolerate is betwixt y’all, leave me out of it please!)

When the Kickstarter closes I will randomly pick TWO of the reblogs to receive signed copies of the new album, as well as digital download codes for all of my previously released tracks!

Only 5 days left to support the Kickstarter, or if you can’t, to enter this giveaway! This album is going to be fantastic and I am ALL OVER IT, so get on the ball!

Win a free album! Yeah! Do the thing!

#JoyCompactor is fully funded!! Let’s push on for that stretch goal to make a full 12inch record! #thanks #thingshappen http://kck.st/1IOzYI9

So excited for this album! Have I mentioned that my vocals and washboard are all over it? I even sang a verse I wrote in one of the songs! Fancy!

Now that the basic goal has been met (full digital album with a two-song 7″ vinyl record), let's see if we can't reach that stretch goal! $5,555 to release the ENTIRE album on vinyl!

Every backer gets a private show! Hop on the Joy Compactor!

I’m so excited about this project! Can’t wait to meet someone amazing from the middle of nowhere!

You guys. This is my friend Strangely.

He‘s a one-man cabaret-folk-punk accordion-circus-riot, and he’s doing a Kickstarter for his new album. But it's not like any other Kickstarter you've seen before: Everyone who donates to the campaign, even if it's just a dollar, will get a private show.

Every. Single. Backer.

Check out the campaign for details!

#I don't know what it is but it's probably awesome

I know what it is! It’s my friend therealstrangely, and he IS awesome! I’ll be at his show tomorrow with literal bells on, so don’t be late! Strangely’s show is life-changing shit.

Paradox House

6PM potluck, 7PM music starts promptly - Music ends at 10:30pm [DON’T BE LATE] All ages, cover by donation Strangely will be returning to the Paradox House this spring, after a long visit to Australia! Expect a gaggle of road stories, oodles of tunes, and appearances by some of Strangely’s most trusted collaborators. Come and welcome Spring back to Seattle with some of the region’s most talented performers!  

A great time is guaranteed for all. We will hold nothing back. We will howl at the moon with you, but not for you. We will shake the walls. We will find the tarnished, darkened place in your heart and polish it to a shine.

Some street parking is available.

Message for details.

I can't remember if Strangely actually asked me to perform in this show, but it's pretty fair to assume.

Strangely in a strange place. #livemusic #Seattle

You can tell I played at this gig (held in a box truck parked in the parking lot of a park in Magnolia), because that's my uke in the corner.

#perthworld we’ve got our @beltingbowlers on for three more nights of #StrangelyFlamboyant @noodlepalace @ 7:30! Get in here!

Do I have any followers in Perth or Adelaide? Go see my dear friend Strangely perform befuddling acts of circus and music before your very eyes! He won't be in your charming country for long, so don't dawdle!
