Uncommon Threads

Welcome to Uncommon Threads, home to my views on the intersecting worlds of music, literature and popular culture.

You will find here a potent stew of criticism, conjecture, opinion, rant, bias, truth, fiction and autobiography. That's right. Uncommon Threads makes no attempt to feign objectivity in order to achieve a tone of moral authority. This is not what is politely referred to in some circles as "mainstream media."

Instead you will bear witness to a blurring of the lines between journalism and memoir, serious musicology and unapologetic opinion. Along the way I will explain why certain artifacts matter to me, and why they should mean something to you too.

Dig in. Respond. Check back. Enjoy.
