ilyAIMY Dangerous Music for Dangerous Times

This weekend was HARD, but Saturday night I got to run a show for FocusMusic with my friends Elena La FulanaJillian Matundan and Nelson Emokpae. All are great writers, musicians and people – but Nelson (aka Nelly’s Echo) has been a friend for a LONG time - and I was stunned to find the worries and hardships of the past several days (he calls it “wahala” – a Nigerian word that loosely translates to “troubles”) melting away.

By tomorrow I don't expect the world to have gotten any easier, and Wednesday morning I’m getting my second Pfizer vaccination - so who KNOWS how I’m going to feel PHYSICALLY as WELL as mentally! Nelson and I were chatting today and it seemed like a good idea to bring him into the webcast tomorrow, just to make sure I survive it! So – 5/12 – ilyAIMY Live from the Lair w Nelly’s Echo hath come to pass! We’ll have some ilyAIMY, some songs from Nelson, some more ilyAIMY, some chat. I hope it’ll leave you feeling better. I know it’ll help ME.

If you’ve got some digital currency burning holes in your digital pockets, we’ve got physical merch at ilyaimy.square.site and digital merch at ilyaimy.bandcamp.com – and of course we’ll happily accept donations at paypal.me/ilyaimy and Venmo @ilytips. We even have an Amazon wishlist covering things we use regularly or could regularly use – whether you’re thinking “gosh, they deserve a new audio interface and / or action figures and some socks!”.
