21 November — Toronto · The Baby G
5 December — Chicago · Sleeping Village
12 December — Lisbon · Musicbox
More rooms will be added. If you want the record to come to your city, leave a note below.
How “Velvet Static” began.
The song started with a missed train and a borrowed coat. I had been in the studio all day trying to make something feel expensive, and the only thing that felt true was the sound of the room after everyone left.
So I kept that. The hum of the lights, the chair turning, the last note hanging in the air. I wrote the lyric on the back of a set list: “We took the long way home / just to keep the night awake.”
That line became the whole record. Not a big statement — just the refusal to let a good night end too early.
