Music

I started recording music for Star Card as a solo project during a deep period of grieving and loss. Since I was a teen, I've been writing online, but I couldn't bring myself to publish anything for a few years and had to take a break from writing anything personal or revealing. I was just too consumed by trauma and I was afraid of being attacked or cyber-stalked if I spoke out or wrote about what happened or what I was going through. When I began to share the music I was making online, I received encouragement from friends and a few strangers that what I was making felt important. Sharing my recordings helped me feel less alone and offered a place where I could still share what I was going through and thinking about without being explicit about what had happened. Now, Star Card is a full band that's been blessed by a rotation of friends. We've been working on new music, and have pretty frequently played shows across NYC, Brooklyn and Queens. Star Card was formed as a way to feel less alone, more brave and yet more safe. If you listen, I hope that it helps you feel the same. <3
