My new album is out now everywhere except Spotify, CDs for pre-order, new music from my friend and collaborator

Hey folks,

Welcome back to another edition of Sharing Notes! Read online here.

My new album is out now everywhere except Spotify

My new album is out now on every major digital streaming service! Not Spotify though (and I explain why here). The Tower of Babel Falls is an anti-fascist folk album that confronts the hypocrisy of christian nationalism. This album was mostly recorded in the summer of 2025, when not on bed-rest for my chronic pain and fatigue due to long-COVID/fibromyalgia.

I had so much fun making this record, my first full-length (and I already can't wait to make another one hehe). I hope this one brings you comfort, as we collectively cope with the bitterness of structural inequalities and strive to make the world a more just, livable place.

CDs for pre-order

If you're a physical media person, you can buy my new album on CD! CDs are now listed for pre-order on Bandcamp! They will ship out on or around November 11, 2025, depending on when the shipment arrives. They make a great gift. ;)

New music from my friend and collaborator Paul Deiss Smith II

My dear friend Paul Deiss Smith II has a couple new songs out now ahead of his album of solo guitar tunes, Time Fabric Home. I got to mix this album! The songs are so good folks! Great music for a quiet morning or a hiking trip. Please enjoy and show him some love.

Peace,
Arend
