I know we’re a couple of days into April but if I could just rewind: I took great care to listen to talented women during March (AKA Women’s History Month) and it was pretty uplifting. There are ladies speaking volumes via their music and Baltimore’s Joy Postell is one of them. Postell’s debut album, Diaspora, dropped...

MetaMusician Know Your Heroes
Sam Graziano
April 1, 2019
As a musician, I have always seen the benefit identifying who my role models were. Watching my idols play helped me understand how I wanted to create music.

Milo Paul, Web Staffer
March 26, 2019
If there’s any shared consensus between the disputing voices in my head, it’s that I grew up lost. In a lot of ways I felt as though I had been born lost because answers weren’t ever immediately accessible. The inherent problem that comes with being non-binary is that I wasn’t even given this...
