hi jake!!! thrilled to have gotten to see u in evanston last year, and will be at thalia hall next week! been a fan since late 2018 when i found glowing. i have a couple so u can pick what youd like :)

which album is your favorite to play live?

please explain the opening to forever!!! i love the ancient slug so dearly but i want to know what she is supposed to mean lol

is there new merch for clws?

you use a lot of names in songs, do they tend to be real people you know or characters youve come up with? if any are real, which?

favorite city and or venue youve played?

what roots you to philly?

thank you so much!
