Entries 🖤 // I’m making YouTube videos documenting the journey of rediscovering my creative voice and the process of building our house in Montana! Making these visual journal entries has been so cathartic through this season. It’s a place I can be myself, try new things, and craft a world of dreamy soothing beauty. I love the challenge of using my creativity in new ways with filming, editing, and scoring all the music. My channel is linked in my bio, I hope you enjoy! ✨

Izzi Ray x @finderspictures

Recorded and Filmed live in Montana

Guitar & keys: @blainestark
Drums: @doylestyle
Bass: @tdraybass

Last September, we rented a van and drove (18hrs through the night) from LA to my family’s land in Montana with all of our gear and our portable pizza oven to film videos for my upcoming record. We set up in each location with a generator and recorded and filmed these live. What you hear is what you see. I’m so incredibly grateful for @finderspictures being willing to take my crazy idea and turn it into something beautiful. Thank you, my friends and band mates for making this come to life and taking driving shifts on this adventure!
Without Blaine, this would not have happened. He has the unique and rare gift of never giving up, creative problem solving, and inspirational musical ideas.
Thank you to my Dad @brianray for hosting our crazy crew and helping us with every little detail.
Lastly, thank you to everyone who has watched this and sent us love! We appreciate your support so much.

More music and videos coming soon!!

For my first year gardening, having an abundance of herbs for dinner is such a gift.

I still have no idea what I’m doing but the lessons of sowing and reaping still come.

The generosity of the soil still shares.

And learning to grow your own food is very punk rock. 🧚

ps. My current obsession is a lemon spindrift with choke cherry syrup made from the trees literally outside my house 💖 and why not drink it out of a tiki mug for funsies??

Serenading the forest with my cover of
Lullaby Requiem - @neilfinnofficial ✨🌞🌲

I’ll never forget my dad showing me this album when I was 6 years old. He put it on my iPod and I listened to it over and over and over. It’s one of my top 5 favorite albums and has influenced my songwriting tremendously. It will always be one of those records that cradles me every time I listen, revealing new details as I evolve and grow.

If you’ve never listened to One All by Neil Finn, please give it a spin and imagine little Izzi absolutely enthralled with her blue iPod on a train somewhere on a family vacation staring out the window while my brain expanded.

joining the birds with my own song, There and Back Again ✨

I’m so excited to be playing a show on April 25th opening for the @saintdeaddog album release. *I will also be playing bass and singing for him as well* it will be at @neat.coffee in Costa Mesa, CA. I’ll be playing a couple new tunes as well 🤍🦋 come join us!

Entry 20// the full new video is up on my channel! 🤍🌞

I’m currently reading Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer and wow it really changed my life. We so often greedily take from the world as humans, but we have a responsibility to take care of our beautiful earth. Initiating and reciprocating generosity.To treat all of creation and each other with respect and reverence. The writing is deeply thoughtful, beautifully symbolic and extremely timely. I think America would be a better place if we all read this book. Highly recommend!
