Colleen here! Things are still quiet at PTM as I’m taking some personal time off, but I just wanted to pop back on to say that scrolling through the TL and seeing new music & exciting announcements from y’all warms my heart and makes me feel grateful to be in this space! 💕

from a 2015 Rolling Stone interview with SOPHIE and A.G. Cook:

[Christine and the Queens @QueensChristine]

Sophie was a stellar producer, a visionary, a reference. She rebelled against the narrow, normative society by being an absolute triumph, both as an artist and as a woman. I can’t believe she is gone. We need to honor and respect her memory and legacy. Cherish the pioneers.

@PunkLottoPod Thanks, I appreciate y’all and your podcast! 💕

[Pass The Mic @passthemicmag]

Hey everyone! Colleen here- after feeling a bit burnt out from blogging, I’m going to take a break from Pass The Mic for a month or two to recharge and reconnect with music away from writing & the internet 💕

[Pass The Mic @passthemicmag]

@pkinsella2 Thanks Paddy! And thanks for introducing me to so many of my favorite new artists! :)

[Pass The Mic @passthemicmag]

Thank you SO much to all of you who have read the blog, followed us on social media, and supported this project!! I probably wouldn’t have kept PTM going for this long without y’all, and I’m excited to keep incorporating new voices on the blog! 💜

[Pass The Mic @passthemicmag]

We’re also in the middle of a pandemic! I’ve been trying to remind myself that it’s ok to feel anxious & it’s good to take a break when you need one, especially now
