Yesterday marked 11 years since I moved to LA. Here’s the first “selfie” I ever took, on my first “phone with a camera,” while I packed my apartment up in New Haven Connecticut. A week later upon arriving in California, a friend convinced me to download an app called “Instagram,” and I used this as my profile picture because it was the only photo of me on my phone. That friend quit Instagram 9 years ago, yet here I am 🤡

Today I turn 42! Without turning this into a TED talk, let me just say on my 40th birthday, I spiraled into a dark place thinking my best years were behind me. Design work was drying up, my vision and mental health was getting worse, and I had convinced myself that my music career was officially over. Rather than let those feelings win, through lots of hard work and the help of my incredibly supportive and patient wife @allisoncrutchfield and many friends (whether they know it or not) — I slowly changed course and turned my 41st year on earth into the best year of my life. I’ve been the busiest and most creatively fulfilled of my entire career (shout out to my manager @lyseevanpelt and my guardian angel boss man @gallopo). I’ve taken control of my physical and mental health (props to my personal trainer and my therapist), and I’m happy to report I’ve finally built back the confidence to write and record new music (yes, you read that correctly). So that’s a long way of saying if you’re feeling down about where you’re at in life, don’t take the detour I did. Age means nothing; all that matters is what you do with the time you have! So you best not let anymore go to waste. Here’s some pix of things that make me happy. Love y’all xoxo MK.

Still processing our first hometown headline show in SEVERAL years at @sidthecatauditorium - it was a perfect reminder of why I started recording and releasing music in the first place. Sometimes it feels better to yell your insecurities into a microphone instead of burying them inside. When you ‘amplify’ instead of ‘ignore,’ you often find you’re not alone, and other people want to yell with you. Thanks to @shamblinghistorytapes for capturing the whole set on an old DV camera! This footage will give you a taste of the chaos if you missed out. Hadn’t played this song in years… you can find it on my “Greatest Hits” record (aka “I Hate Jazz”) available now from @mergerecords!

BREAKING NEWS: I MADE MY BEST SHIRT YET!!! Not to brag, but I’ve made some funny shirts, but this might be the most absurd. LIMITED QUANTITIES were made for the SOLD OUT show TOMORROW because I’m not sure if “punks” wanna wear a shirt that says “The Beatles.” Get it while you can! Also did re-prints of some long out of stock designs! Doors at 7, @welovevoila at 8, @twistedteensneworleans at 9, yer boy MK at 10. My BFF @tadkeyes will be playing vinyl all night between bands from his INSANE collection (trust me, he has incredible taste). All at the brand new South Pasadena institution, @sidthecatauditorium. Again it’s sold out, so sorry if you don’t got tix, but don’t say I didn’t warn y’all… SEE YA IN THE PIT!!! Shout out to @farewell.transmission on the fast print job! Here ya go, @merch_report!

TICKETS NOW ON SALE FOR MY SHOW MARCH 7th WITH @twistedteensneworleans AND @welovevoila AT @sidthecatauditorium!!! Story time: I came across a record earlier this year by a band I had never heard of, and the whole world fell out from beneath me. To say I was blown away is an understatement. It became the only thing I listened to for months, and I began holding onto it like a secret and passing it around to friends when I felt they were worthy. I blasted it in the car at night with the windows down, tracked down records, mailordered merch like I was 16, and all of a sudden I felt excited about THE CREATION OF MUSIC again. I couldn’t believe a band I didn’t even know existed at the beginning of this year made—quite possibly—my favorite record of the past 2 decades. I hit up Caspian, the singer, and said if there’s anything I can do to help, let me know. He said “We haven’t played LA yet, want to play a show together?” And I said, “I literally NEVER do this, but I’ll set up a random LA show as an excuse to see my new favorite band play live!” And so here we are!! That’s the show. Please buy tickets and come early to see @shannonshaw’s new band @welovevoila (who I’m sure are incredible, but don’t have recorded music yet!) and Twisted Teens. It’s gonna be a great night with the @sidthecat crew in the NEW AUDITORIUM! And if you want YOUR MIND BLOWN, cue up that album I’m holding in my right hand!!!!
