Flares and Signal Fires Coming to Vinyl

My 2015 EP, Flares and Signal Fires, is coming to vinyl for its 10th anniversary! You be able to pick up a copy on November 14 at my show at Bond Brothers Eastside before it becomes available to order online.

The EP has been remastered by Levi Seitz at Black Belt Mastering. His resumé includes Beyoncé’s Renaissance, Olivia Rodrigo’s Sour, and last year’s special “one step” re-releases of the first three Linkin Park albums.

Listening to the new masters this summer was a real moment for me. It took me back to 2015, feeling everything I felt during that tough time - the profound heartbreak, the visceral anger, the deep sadness. I felt pride in having made it through that time alive, and in the work that came out of it. All while being floored at how good the record sounds. It was a LOT.This is my first vinyl release and I couldn’t be more excited for folks to drop the needle on it!

My deepest thanks to Polychromatic Records, Levi, Erika Records who pressed this release, my supportive friends and family, and YOU for listening all these years.

NEW REMIX: Allie X - "Need You"

Here’s a fun one for ya. I started this one several years ago, kind of got stuck and just left it unfinished. I was digging through some stuff recently and found it, and a good friend thought it was great and encouraged me to finish it, so here it is.

Click here to stream and download it for free on SoundCloud (for legal reasons, no other streaming platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, etc. - you know the drill by now. Unless someone wants to get ahold of her and talk her into releasing it officially?)

Thanks, Greg!

PS: Those vocal chops were so fun.
