2019 is ending with the best and worst moments. Matt & I both got food poisoning and I finally got a Michael Jordan cardboard cutout. As I lay on my couch in total agony I keep looking up at MJ thinking about how I can’t wait to cut that basketball out of his hand and attach him to a train set next year 🚂🎄 #homealone #foodpoisoning

I woke up at 3am to catch a flight so my brain can’t think of all the things I want to say to properly wish @mattmusty a happy birthday. He’s simply the best and deserves a way better caption than this one. Love you ♥️

House is cozy, we are cozy, this was taken three weeks ago and if I had it my way the house would always look like this. 🎄

On Thanksgiving I received the most special photo. My friend Jessica Meir is an astronaut currently living on the ISS. She just did the first all-female spacewalk with fellow astronaut Christina Koch and is growing plants and studying crystals and all kinds of wonderful things up there. And on Thanksgiving she sent me a photo of herself wearing her @resynator t-shirt in the cupola of the ISS, with Earth right below her. I cannot express in words what this means to me. This day was also the 31st anniversary of my dad’s car crash that took his life. What a wild world we live in, and what an even wilder universe. Thank you so much Jess! @astro_jessica 👩🏻‍🚀💜

Today is my sissy’s birthday! I found photographic proof that not much has changed in her 37 years of living: still rocking hand-knit sweaters and still riding in wagons. 🧶 Love you @twoofwands 💜💜💜

Be Kind Holiday Benefit with my favorite brothers 👯‍♂️💃 @djangostewart is nailing the crazy faces, just nailing it. 💜

Be Kind Benefit Show this past weekend. I was so busy that I only took two photos the whole time and they were from the rehearsals but MAN what an incredible evening. Be Kind started long before I was a part of it so I am eternally grateful that I was able to join this incredible team. Mereki, your vision of the event is a reflection of your vision of how the world should be and that’s why it’s easy to find talent and volunteers and attendance - - because we all want to be a part of it. The Be Kind Benefit show supports the @alexandriahousela and this year we raised over 30k!! I’ve had a lot of non profit organizations let me down over the years and it’s turned me off to donating indirectly but Alexandria House has shown me time and time again that their system works. They provide safe and supportive housing for women and children and help them get back on their feet mentally and financially when they leave the house. Thank you @mereki and @kristinsayz for turning me on to it 💜💫

HBO Premiere of Lindsey Vonn’s documentary: She’s the coolest and so deserving of a beautiful film to tell her story. Thank you @chadmhall for bringing me along for the ride - - literally we had to take this chairlift to get there. ⛷✨

Last night @graciepotter’s performance aired on Jimmy Kimmel Live, and because it’s 2019 you can watch it anytime online, so go check it out! 💫

It is an enchanting, exhilarating, emotional, fun, care-free experience that I NEED more of in my life. It’s one of the only concerts that I don’t want to end, I could stay there all night. And I’m so in love with Shoshana that sometimes I forget that the man of my dreams is playing drums right behind her. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ @mattmusty @shobean @standardsatthestandard$

I don’t celebrate Halloween much anymore but when you’re at @jimmykimmellive and you see your twins from The Ring, you have to get in the spirit. This is for everyone in highschool who used to call me “the girl from the Ring” - you’re welcome.

Daylight is out today! ☀️Congratulations to @graciepotter and @nerdentine on building this piece of art together from the heart in a genuine and loving way. This is a really special record and I hope you all take a moment to check it out. Also I’m obsessed with every song and each day I pick a new favorite. Right now my favorite is Please. But Back To Me used to be. Also Release. And Everyday Love. And all the others.

It’s a pretty surreal feeling to wake up to a live stream of your friend floating in space. It’s incredibly inspiring to watch someone fulfill their lifelong dream after so much dedication and hard work. I’m sipping coffee and wondering what the F I’m doing with my life 🔪

Finally a mental health resource for musicians and touring professionals (and their families!!) Check out Deren’s post below and head over to the @backline.care website, I’m certainly going to.

OK this is really amazing. My friend @hilltops_ reached out to me after my post about Neal Casal’s death wanting to do something about getting musicians access to mental health resources. I started thinking aloud with no idea how to execute anything, dreaming up the kind of help I wished existed. Hilary got an amazing brain trust of music industry badasses together to give more input and she and @torypittarelli and others rolled up their sleeves and the result just 8 weeks later is @backline.care, which went live today!
.
Backline is a resource hub partnered with the leading support organizations for musicians to streamline their various support services into one easy-to-use resource for musicians, touring professionals and their families, with one-on-one case workers available to walk them through getting whatever help they need with no red tape or fuss.
.
My single biggest "wish" when I have needed help myself was to see a 1-step system that required minimal effort, because even a 2 or 3 step process can be the excuse we need to put it off another day, another week, forever.
.
Amazingly, Backline is indeed that 1-step process, where you just go to the website, enter your problem, and a case worker will help you do the rest. Grants for lean financial times, sober support at shows, massage therapy, healthy food on tour, same day rehab facility admittance, there’s resources for all of it as well as live crisis assistance 24/7.
.
That we were lamenting the nonexistence of this type of thing 2 months ago and today it exists is amazing, and a tribute to how much the world can change if people put the work in. And, especially, to how badass Hilary and Tory et al. are for pulling all of this together
Please share this with the music professionals in your life, all problems welcome, just let us know confidentially what you need and Backline will do the rest.

2 years ago today we lost an incredible man. Someone who I actually grew really fond of post-death because his wonderful family trusted me to help with archiving. One of my favorite gems that I found while working was a small roll of film that included footage that Tom shot in the early days of tour. We used this footage in the Keep A Little Soul music video that came out last year. I really loved working on this project and it holds a special place in my heart because 5 years ago I began learning about my dad by going through his boxes in the attic, and then last year I was able to learn about a true American hero by doing the same. 🌎 We miss you so much TP. 🎸

Chad finally moved out of the house that I spent the best 6 years of my 20s in. When I moved out 3 years ago to move in with Matt, I came back for every Christmas tree lighting, every earthquake scare and every backyard movie night that I could so it felt like I’d never left. I’m so sad that we can’t go back there anymore. So many memories. Last night we got to have one more memorable night there. We blew up air mattresses and all slept together in the living room. Then on this last morning in the house, we woke up like we always did: slightly hungover and surrounded by the ones we love most. 💔 @chadmhall @briancolbertkennedy @clrams02 💔 #cafe1213
