NicolleMeByMyName is a newsletter breaking down every album on Rolling Stone’s Top 500 Albums list.
I relate each album to the context of the musician’s life, society at large and the happenings of my own life when listening to that album. I absolutely never know what I am going to write until I have listened to the whole album and allowed my whole body to be moved by it.
I write this for those who:
love music
need a weekly five-minute break to read about tiny moments of joy and depth
feel deeply about their relationships and the world around them
are looking for moments of catharsis and community
just want to read the diggity-dang thing!
I hope this newsletter soothes you the way writing it does for me. I hope you enjoy the music, the words, and also some recommendations for social media and poetry and music and movies, but mostly just the fact that we are alive and, through technology, we have the opportunity to share shadows of our souls with each other.
