About me

Gender Female
Introduction We met back in 2007 at a gig editing magazines about Latin youths and music. One day, we realized we had the same birthday, lived 10 blocks away from each other, and loved the same lines in many bands' songs (especially Radiohead and Wolf Parade). We discovered new sounds, traded mix CDs and became ecstatic about what we picked for each other which turned into going to many live shows together.

The one common thing in this relationship has been our unpretentious appreciation for culture, music, and yes, writing. The funny thing is, having worked in music journalism, we grew jaded of its typical process. This space, although we don't take it lightly, is entirely written through our perspective and not some sort of journalistic vein. They are vignettes of shows we attend because of our love for these bands. Our occasional city-exploring adventures will work their way in here, too.

"And the words we find
are always insufficient, like
love,
though they are often lovely
and all we have."
-Stephen Dunn
