Have I talked
about Celeste
yet? She is
one of
my favorite
finds of 2022
(I was late).
Last year,
she released
a deluxe version
of her album
Not Your Muse.
Two discs
and 22 tracks
and nearly
every song
is a 10/10.
Tracks "Lately"
and "Both Sides of the Moon"
with band
Gotts Street Park.
Track "Unseen"
with Lauren Auder.
"A Little Love"?!
"Strange"?!
These are JAMS.
She even has
a Colors performance.
She even has
a new single.
She even has
a piece of
my heart.
