Just One Thing with Alex Simand

July 12, 2019

We are delighted that our current featured memoir, "A Tall Order," comes from Alex Simand. And again, if you haven't read it yet, we're on hiatus for July, so go ahead and check it out, with the rest of our June issue. We've got time! Alex recently shared with us a truly beautiful cat photo, and just one thing about writing trauma and "A Tall Order":

July 10, 2019

Our June issue's art comes from photographer Katherine Joyce Robbins, an artist living in Tokyo. We're in love with the movement and moment captured in "dull gem" and are thrilled to feature her work.

July 1, 2019

|

Chris Wolford

On her new Sturgill Simpson-produced LP, Deluxe Hotel Room, Lucette explores all types of love and the relationships that come with it. I recently spoke with the Canadian-born musician about her hometown of Edmonton, writing serious songs, and how making the new album gave her the courage to open up to others.

Chris Wolford: The leadoff track sets the stage for what’s to come: lovelorn narrators, dreams of better lives, and something sinister always lurking around every corner. When discussing the alb...
