NOAHFINNCE weaves a spellbinding narrative in his latest music video for “SCUMBAG,” drawing inspiration from the enchanting world of Harry Potter. The alt-artist, who initially dropped the track in October, uses this magical realm to shed light on issues of transphobia and confront TERFs (trans-exclusionary radical feminists). Evoking the nostalgia of J.K.

Despite the enchantment of Harry Potter, recent statements from Rowling have shifted the narrative, prompting discussions about… Read more »

This week I have long time friend and tour manager Audrey Wray. I met her when I was in my old band The Bigger Lights, she would come on the road with us from time to time and help sell merch, and was just an all around good hang. I had her come by the studio when she had a little down time from tour managing a Drag Queen tour and for her to tell me how she got her start in the industry that led her to where she is today!
