Ourselves + Others is a Synth-Pop/Rock band from Houston, Texas, formed in April 2016 by high school friends Jonathan Barrett (keys/vocals) and Stephen King (drums). After their first original song, “Weatherman,” was self-released in July 2017 to a positive reception, King made the decision to leave school at the University of Texas at Austin in order to move back to Houston and pursue the band full time. In November of that year, Ourselves + Others added longtime friend Mateo Rodriguez (guitar/keys/vocals) to the roster and became a trio. They then began playing shows all around Texas in promotion of their debut EP 'Rudiment', which is out now.

"She was doing everything I was doing," Obama said of Hillary Clinton in 2008, "but just like Ginger Rogers, it was backwards in heels."

Renee', 4x published author, Creator of  #DemWords column on DemWritePress and longtime community activist,  joined by her co-host, Jenny Gattone, Published Author and former staff writer on the web series "Southern Dish," as they interview extraordinary women in politics and the community.

If you have been searching for a community to sink your heels into, learn from, grow with, and support, then you have come to the right place.  No woman left behind!
