Every now and then I revisit Dolly Parton’s America. Such a good exploration of Dolly’s history and all the unexpected threads connecting her music to culture, identity, Appalachia, and people whose lives intersect with hers. A great listen. www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/dol... #Happy925

Sending love and prayers to #MichaelKiwanuka. I’ve long loved his work, in particular his album Kiwanuka. He’s so gifted, wishing him smooth healing. I did a little sketch while listening to his music, from about seven years ago.

Beck’s acclaimed album ‘Sea Change’ was said to have been inspired by a breakup. For his partner of nine years, Leigh Limon, it was the story of how the Church of Scientology took over his life.

I drew Macklemore years ago, this is a pretty un finished sketch. He was being made fun of a lot when I drew this, I was never a fan but I liked his vibe. He doesn't take himself seriously, but can open a newspaper and let his fans know what's up. #respect

I fell in love with her and her music when I was 10. Never dreaming, that I would have the fortune of picking and singing on records and TV shows with the one and only Dolly Parton. Thank you, Dolly. I am filled with grace and gratitude for your life and all you brought us. Forever cherished, Sam

Been thinking a lot about this quote from Roger Ebert today.

Thank you Empire State Building. NYC ❤️ Dolly.

The Library is devastated to learn of the passing of Dolly Parton, a music legend and titan of children's literacy. Her Imagination Library program has earned multiple Library Literacy Awards and, in 2018, she visited us to donate its 100 millionth book to our collection and host a story time. 🦋❤️

His recent appearance in The Comeback, is a must see. RIP to a legend.

Glad to come on here and see Rufus Wainwright is trending for the right reasons.

Happy birthday to Klaus Voormann. His incredibly dreamy line work inspired me for a piece I did for a musician a little while back. He's quite a legend. #artsky #klausvoorman

I live in west Los Angeles and this article is the best I’ve read. Everyone should read. “There’s a backdrop of daily life — a morning coffee spot, a view on our run, a cute neighbor with a cute dog — that sometimes we don’t appreciate until suddenly it’s not there anymore. And won’t be back.”
