Big news me and and Rondo are moving to New Orleans in a couple months. I have lots of big feelings about leaving Fayetteville, my home of 10 years, and Arkansas, where I’ve spent the majority of my adult life, but I’m happy to be doing a big thing with Claire and moving closer to family is gonna be great.

If anyone knows of a nice place opening up in mid city that’s big enough for two people and a massive dog, plz let us know! I’ll also be renting out my yellow house on 15th street in south Fayetteville. If anyone needs a place let me know!

Thanks everyone 🖤

HUGE thanks to these three incredible artists and all the folks that came together to make their incredible records come to life. It was such a treat to be able to bring the Tape Dad name back to life and I owe it all to these folks. Cheers to our class of 2024 and three of my favorite albums of the year:

- “Again! Again!”
- “Diggin for Dirt”
- “4”
