Haley Heynderickx & Max García Conover • Song For Alicia • 2025




My grandpa was a communist, they might've said a terrorist
And when someone looks at what I've done
I know songs won't seem like enough
Songs are for sure not nearly enough

So it's ride, Alicia, ride
Move, Alicia, move
I would be Boricua even if I was born on the moon

The two groups convicted of American sedition
Are the Proud Boys and the Puerto Ricans
We share a Wikipedia page
So what else can you say?

It's ticker tape accumulation, neoliberal sublimation
New precariat convinced that immigrants are corporations
Hold the phone, just be patient while we burn your poets' pages
While the doctor takes the medicine and tries to fuck the patients

Oh my God, they put her in a courtroom in Chicago
They bound her hands behind her back, put tape across her mouth
And when she screamed, the tape released, and she said what the world says
"You cannot own a country, you do not own a country"
And so two guards took her legs and held her to the floor
While another punched her in the face and gagged her like before
And she got fifty years and more
And they never said what for

James Levy & Allison Pierce • Fountain Pen • 2021



The Boot: "With Levy's subdued vocals and a simple melody, "Tootie" explores the blissful normalcy of a good relationship, and what it feels like to lose that — even things as simple as dirty microwaves and nurturing plants grown from seed. "These are the moments why we'll go back and laugh inside / These are the best days of our lives," Levy sings. "These are the moments where I wish you could get back there just for one minute of the day."

Tale of Two • "demons" • 2020


“Swallow the lies of the lullabies. Sweet melodies keep you blind. Twinkling diamonds they look so high as we look up from the gutter to the sky."


“Tale of Two’s darkly psychedelic Folk soundscapes works in perfect synergy with their poetic lyrics which keep to the archetypal Folk-style lyricism allowing you to become immersed in the narrative of the single.” - Amelia Vandergast for Corvid Culture
“Hypnotically mesmerising” - Wavebyte


“Tale of Two have that natural, easy-flowing chemistry that makes most songwriting partnerships work.” - Clash Magazine

“Tale of Two, they make the worst of times, and of human nature’s seamier side into the best of times – carefully crafted songs lit by a mixture of gas lamp and garish neon.” 
- Nick Hutchings of Velvet-Sheep

Portland • Killer's Mind • 2019




Portland is the creative brainchild of musician and songwriter Jente Pironet. Sometime during the misty autumn of 2015, Jente collected a huge amount of song material, without a specific end purpose. Over the years, the songs were refreshed, adapted, rewritten and eventually gathered together and poured into a new creative receptacle by the name of Portland, a nod to the home of the late Elliot Smith.
