Chaz Cardigan

if you're still listening to my music: thank you ❤️‍🔥 i'm alive + living a new chapter. i'm focused on writing a 2nd musical, writing for other artists/film/tv, and being a person with chronic pain who's not on camera. all of it is on my patreon patreon.com/chazcardigan

I’m a fucking communist

i wrote a musical, and it's going to be part of @NAMT this October! this is magical, prestigious, and the most excited i've ever been in my career. more info + tickets: namt.org/festivals/2024/

challengers.

“Despite Netanyahu defying and humiliating him at every turn, Biden had resisted changing US policy since October – even as he continued to lose support among Black and Arab American voters, along with young progressives, who are dismayed by his backing of Israel’s slaughter.” theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

3 KEY TAKEAWAYS from TTPD + Cowboy Carter: * having a specific voice matters! your perspective = your artistry! * challenging yourself is more interesting than doing what's comfortable. * self-indulgence isn't cute. learn to edit your work. coaching➡️ chaz.bestlessonever.com

sat down with @alt_lately for a great chat about Glassland, pop music, and using joy as a weapon! 💙⚡️

fun layer to having friends who make art is that we don't talk about our art. you play card games or watch movies or whatever and forget that you're surrounded by absolute geniuses, and get to rediscover it OH RIGHT! You're a great actor! OH YEAH you're a concert violinist!

Cowboy Carter is the most important piece of American music ever

english has a cool built-in heuristic for detecting bullshit are most of the nouns and verbs being used latin/greek or germanic in origin? if germanic, the things being discussed are probably real physical actions and things: tree, walk, cow, shit, fall, wood, buy, leg, go

This year has been wild. Released an album, toured, wrote my first musical and started my second. Most importantly, I've started teaching songwriting. I've put together a toolkit called The Big Idea. I teach all ages and all skill levels. Reply with "💡" ⬇️ Let’s get to work!
