upset merch, tape and tour: pt. 1

Upset has big plans for 2015, and the details are still being ironed out, BUT I do have some limited homemade Upset merch available in my etsy store right now. I mean like LIMITED. These patches and pins will also be available at our sold out Glass House shows with Joyce Manor and the Garden on February 13th and 14th.

We are recording 6 new songs on Feb. 8th with Todd C. of Recess Records and we will be releasing them on a tape sometime in March/April (you will also be able to get the tracks online.) You can hear some of the new songs in our stripped down set for Pitchfork Radio.

The theme for merch and art around these new songs is teamwork. This means girls in uniform a la Girl Scouts and Olympic Gymnastics teams. We've also been into the 70s athletic aesthetic. Here is a sneak peek at the inspiration and designs we have been kicking around.

exciting news

I made an Etsy shop! Check it out..

middle of the map fest 2014 outfit options

Whenever I travel, I like to bring a lot of clothing options. What I think I want to wear one day, I decide I hate how it looks the next. I had a night to myself in a hotel room and decided to look at everything I brought with me and make some outfits with what I had. As a kid I used to do this with my new school clothes every summer, and here I am at 27 up to the same old shit.

etsy faves: modern girl blitz

Not only do I love Modern Girl  Blitz's blog, but her etsy shop is right up my alley. I'm thinking I definitely need to order one or all of these things before the next Upset show.
