Happy five years to my solo EP I released during lockdown... Has it really been that long? This project took me a couple months of assembling my favorite ambient/noise sessions from over the years into a psychedelic audio journey called "DAYSORE." Just know it gets loud a lot & that's a warning. 🗣️

That's a wrap! The Mystery Machine gang played for us at our final show of the year, complete with the Scooby Doo theme song and all their trademark catchphrases. #jinkies Thank you to a packed house for getting down for Halloween, from a very sweaty Velma. I don't know how she does the turtleneck.

Stringing up the B.C. Rich Mockingbird, since my metal band days a decade ago. 🎸☁️ Isn't it wild picking up something again, after all the years in-between, and feeling that experience you've acquired flow through an instrument your hands remember so well? Time to get to work. 🌼

Celebrating a NEW #cardiacs album with their debut single and a cat. Quite a journey since that bus on a bus, innit? For the first (and quite possibly the last) time, I can say... it's NEW Cardiacs day. I'm feeling a bit giddy, go kiss the big ugly shark. We love you, Tim. 🌼

Now we come to the end. "Southern Progress in the Northwest" finishes tonight on familiar ground as we return to St. Louis for our third year in a row. Thank you to everyone who has helped us feel so welcome in so many new places the past 2+ weeks. It's almost ogre now. @flummoxband.bsky.social

I met Data, best birthday show ever. 🖖 We played our entire new album and multiple versions of "happy birthday" for a very special little Boise bash I'll never forget. Thank you to Shrine Social Club for an all around fun time. Whatever happens next, it was a rocking birthday. 🪨🎈

Our first stretch of dates ended with an early one (and some @othersbynoone.bsky.social fans 📖) in Iowa last night! It's been a journey touring the new album for the first time in so many new places, yet still running into people that already like us everywhere we go. Travel day to Denver, CO. 🦊

It's not every day a member of The Whitest Kids U Know asks to host your show! Sioux Falls was full of laughs thanks in no small part to Timmy Williams hosting: he even warned me against building a mountain of chairs in the middle of our set (I'd already started) 🪑 #tour @flummoxband.bsky.social

Indianapolis! I'm coming for you, along with the rest of Flummox for DAY 1 of our summer headlining tour. For the next 2+ weeks we'll be on the road performing all the songs on our new album for the first time, including our first-ever shows in the Northwest. @flummoxband.bsky.social for updates 🎶

A new week is here! Oh, the horrors! Or in my case, tour-rors 😱 Wednesday I'm off to explore a part of the country I've never been, to celebrate our new album "Southern Progress." Come say hi if you live out west. @flummoxband.bsky.social And rest well, Black Sabbath. 🖤 📸: Frisketti Photo

Pride Month was a big one to make it through, but it doesn't end here. 🌈 We must celebrate each day knowing our existence is something worth celebrating. Carry that love & joy with you everywhere you go, & make it to next June for me if not yourself. Good luck, I promise to do my best with you. 💙

How's that for cat-titude? Burgling cats (not really) with Mac Sabbath in Chicago last weekend, from the final night of our national tour together. Gonna miss this goofball, thanks for the book on the Monkees and singing about bread every night. "But, Ronald!" 🍔🍟🍔🍟🍔

I just got off tour, but you gotta road trip to catch Sleepytime Gorilla Museum. I am so lucky to have witnessed the museum of the past that hides the future twice now. The world is a better place with the museum open in it. Hope it won't be my last time seeing these beautiful nerds together. 🦍

The healthiest tour of the year ends tonight with a sold-out show in Chicago. Such an experience can really do a lot to a person, especially someone with a burger for a head: but no matter how flummoxing the circumstances, the operation was still a success. 🍔 Let's finish this in the windy city. 💨

Birmingham-burger, you rocked. Felt good to be reunited with our full lineup as our eastern US trek continues. Having a blast on double duty this tour while our keyboardist finishes school. 🎹 Tonight is ROCK-lanta, our first time at The Loft. See you on a Saturday night with Mac Sabbath. 🍔🍟🍔🍟🍔

Flummox does Dallas!! TONIGHT we pick up where we left off with Mac Sabbath as we team up for the next few weeks for some truly weird shows all over the eastern US. 🍔 Come see us early outside near a Ferris wheel at the appropriately named Ferris Wheelers. 🎡 We're on tour. @flummoxband.bsky.social
