The music video for my new single “Totally Liminal” is now live over at @undertheradarmag — link in the bio. It’s directed by the inimitable @alexmarkman . Thanks so much to the kind folks at UTR for premiering it. And to @trouterspace @drexmexler and @danagreenleaf for their help making it.

Here’s a director’s cut of a Greenlight national broadcast spot we shot last year. On the road for a couple weeks with an amazing crew made this shoot feel like summer camp. We asked real people to act in this one, which always brings a distinctive playfulness to a piece. Enjoy.

It takes many hands to bring a great sauna to life - and the same is true for this joyful film, a collaboration between Big Towel, Friendly City Creative Club, creative director/writer Willie Miesmer, director Alex Markman, producer Meg Murnane, editor Sjoerd Dijk and many others who came together for this love letter to everyone’s sauna cravings.

Born from steam and shared passion, this project coalesced through the hearts of countless sauna creatives and sauna fans in the Hudson Valley.

My friend Dave kept talking about this country western dance at the VFW in town, how there were world class musicians playing the classics, all for ten bucks every Wednesday. The first night I went I didn’t dance. I was completely taken. The music was incredible, it was impossible to label the crowd – it was more akin to walking down a city street – and, again, it was only ten bucks. When the band was wrapping up, there were a group of women, equally diverse, crowding around @connorfkennedy the brainchild of the event. I threw myself amongst them, told Connor I wanted to come next week with my camera, dropped Les Blank as a stylistic reference, and the rest is history.

Our short film, Honky Tonk Wednesdays (sharing the name with the event) is the result. It’s a music film, but it’s also about people from all walks of life coming together and sharing in a good time. I couldn’t be more proud and excited with the film premiering at @woodstockfilmfestival opening night at @assemblykingston to a home-town crowd. I’ve been papering the town with posters Connor made, and everytime I ask a shopowner to put one up, their eyes light up the minute I say Honky Tonk. It’s a testament to what Connor created, and I’m glad we have a document of it to put out in the world. Hope to see you at the premiere.

Tickets are a little more than ten bucks, but we’ll be premiering with @bsvestal film Opryland USA: A Circle Broken, there will be a Q&A, @shotofsilvercindycashdollar and John Sebastian will be there, and then @djprettygood will be playing all the classic country hits on vinyl. Connor and crew will not be there — their talents have earned them an extended engagement with a pop star in the big city. But I’m going to put Connor on speaker phone during the Q&A so he can give his 2-cents.

Hope to see y’all there. Tickets in bio.

I joined the Coach House Players (@coachhouseplayers) to get over some deep rooted fears of the stage and performances you can’t go back and edit. It’s been an amazing experience. I play a Junkie in a 70s murder mystery. Last three shows are this weekend starting tonight. Come see me play stoned on stage. I made a little promo for the show.

REVISED: It rained again and again. Screening postponed (third time’s a charm) Tuesday, Oct. 12th.

Mallory Meditates plays this Thursday Sept. 23rd, 7pm on Pier46, NYC. Link to tickets (free) in profile.

The cast which includes @mallory.markman and my mom @sandimarkman will be there. Come say sup. (Screening is past Sadie’s bedtime.) If meditation isn’t your thing this film is for you.

Making this short with @malcolmgladwell and the 9-year-olds was super fun. They yelled at me every time I laughed ruining their takes. Thanks to everyone who was a part of it. And whoever ordered me the gf bagel - it was pretty good.

How’s my VO work?

Mal smiling slightly out of focus, sparks shooting out her hair.

He’s not on Instagram.

@grantagold post surf. Very hard to walk away from a sight like this.

@a_nave_espacial + Mal Meditates super cool cross promo post.

@jeffypoopoo and the musicality of his voice makes this trailer sing. His new album premieres on Spotify today.
