yes, venue x, I will give u 15% of my merch sales, & yes I will draw out the transaction in the most uncomfortable way possible by asking u to confirm at every step that, yes, u r making your $20 off a musician who supported a sold out show & is still hoping to break even
My Light, My Destroyer is a sum of many parts and without the people who have shown me love and support I could not release music into the world. Thank you for pushing me when I needed to be pushed and holding me when I needed to be held; for pulling me apart and putting me back
Thank you for welcoming My Light, My Destroyer into the world!
Very psyched to be

’s AOTM! I made a cosmic companion to the album in the form of a CD that takes a closer look at its astral side by revisiting the sounds, textures and voices that make up the record
looking at upcoming tour expenses and crying bc they haven't factored in when one of us inevitably gets covid (again) and digs me that much deeper in the hole. all this continues to make 0 sense & i continue to love playing music more than anything 🙃 🕳️ 🕳️ 🕳️ 🕳️ 🕳️ 🕳️ 🕳️ 🕳️ 🕳️
When home recording, my voice is pure siren call for garbage trucks. They’re all, hark! is that the quietest song in all the land? Lo, to the siren shores we fly, and linger for all eternity! Fate hangs o’er all; on you it lies to live or be trash! to be safe, be noise!
apparently biden's going to a dinner party down the street from my house so all the streets are blocked off. thank u mr president I can finally record vocals 🙏

& by the way, out of the last 2 months of US shows, only 2 venue reps have had the pleasure of being slowly tortured by my merch count at the end of the night. Bc all other venues woken up to how dumb that practice is. 15% of my sales = 100% of my excruciating math performance

I’m normally so on my gift giving game but I have fully failed so everyone is getting unlabeled edibles that were handed off to me by various bands before they crossed the Canadian border

), is out today. Stream it and read why it's our Album Of The Week:
Someone just came up to the merch table, asked to see one of my shirts up close, said “I don’t know what to make of that,” told me I look like Nicole Kidman, and walked away. I said nothing.
Just said “go smell that tree, trust me” to a couple strangers and walked away. Even w my best intentions it still came off sleazy but damn that tree smelled GOOD

@st_vincent
crew is limiting the show to a single act to minimize Covid risks for all touring members & I won’t be joining in October. Any decision that allows artists to feel safe on the road right now is vital & sending love to Annie & Co. Stay safe & much love 💋
Got home from tour and had a nightmare that I had 10 list spots and 47 ppl on my guest list. Taking a few days off to work on building a more exotic dreamscape
Y’all I just went to the dr bc I’ve been hearing strange noises in my right ear only to find out that I had a CAT HAIR lodged against my ear drum lollllll it’s official cats r truly evil
Happy Valentine’s Day. I’m in the back of the van driving from SF to Portland and I have no idea what my bandmates up front are talking about. All I know is I love watching them talk ❤️
Wish you could have seen the snowy pines of the Norwegian coastline lit up by my headlights as I drove through the night towards Oslo. I was the only one on the road & it was as beautiful as it was treacherous. I am covered in mud & on a flight home.
