new summer to-do, inspired by tonight at edge esmeralda:
a listening party where everyone brings a song or music video that shaped them. not just a song they liked, but a song that made them who they are today.
we sat in a theater and, one by one, someone would introduce their song or video and why it was meaningful to them. and then we’d hit play.
sometimes Spotify-generated lyrics singalong. sometimes something homemade. sometimes a new song no one else had heard before.
and then we’d clap, but not in a performance way. more like a thank you, like thank you for sharing that part of you with us.
music, to me, is so human. it carries things words alone can’t. it holds memories we didn’t know we still had. it connects us, both with one another and with ourselves.
hard to describe the feelings from being in a room full of mostly strangers and meeting them through the lens of music.
can’t wait to try in LA, maybe at Noun Cafe with @drewcoffman.eth and @derekgtaylor.
thank you for reading. 35 replies
