Fab chord progression. Nearly every track on your album is a single. Very hooky and youve done a excellent job with the arrangement, mix and production.

"Tiny Injuries" is my third full length solo album to complete the trilogy. The first two being "The Restless Dreams of Youth" released in 2021 and "Start at the End" released in 2022. The inspiration comes from the idea that throughout our lives we experience moments that leave tiny  emotional or physical injuries. And as we grown older,  we try to forget about them or hide them, but even the tiniest ones can resurface and we become forced to deal with the scars. No injuries are ever really tiny.

4 Studies For Guitar

We Are Static

First, they charm you, promise you a rose garden, a castle in the sky. You stumble, you fall. The breakdown begins: gaslighting, fear-mongering, isolation, abuse. And the beating. You know you should run. But you're alone, afraid dependent, and torn. Not everyone gets away. But this one did.

"OCD"

The Ohio-bornTamar Berk first showed up on my radar in the mid-90s when she sang for the iChicago outfit Starball. Starball were a really great band and they worked with everyone from Material Issue to Steve Albini and their Holstein Park record remains one of my favorite records of the '90s. Tamar's solo output now numbers five fabulous albums like The Restless Dreams Of Youth, Good Times For A Change her new one, OCD,. Weaned on everyone from Liz Phair to the Small Faces, Berk's new album is scruffy blast of melodic indie rock that's doused in reverb put together with vulnerability and honest and coated with some of the most unforgettable choruses you'll hear all year. Now based in San Diego, Berk is on a creative tear, which actuall ties into her new album's title. The compulsive need to create--and this is something I think most artists understand--can bring on a version of OCD that can inform the work, sure, but it can also be a nagging voice that relies on patterns to be silenced. We talk about all of that, and so much more; she's real and honest and funny and sharp and you're going to love her.
