All Things Andrea Gibson

This blog is dedicated to all things Andrea Gibson. It is run by the mere passion and respect I have for them as an artist in the effort to inspire anyone and everyone the way they have done me, and also to collect all the breathtaking beauty they manage to put into words. I run a separate writing blog (much of which stems from the inspiration I find in their words) so I'll do my best to keep this one as active as I can. If you love spoken word, and the kind of poetry they bring to the world, follow away. This blog is always open to messages, requests and suggestions. Andrea, if this by any crazy chance of stars, is you stalking yourself on the internet, i don't even know what to say except- thank you for you. Hopefully, I'll get to tell you this in person some day.

Lately I’ve been thinking about who I want to love, and how I want to love, and why I want to love the way I want to love, and what I need to learn to love that way, and how I need to become to become the kind of love I want to be. And when I break it all down, when I whittle it into a single breath, it essentially comes out like this: before I die, I want to be somebody’s favorite hiding place, the place they can put everything they need to survive, every secret, every solitude, every nervous prayer, and be absolutely certain I will keep it safe. I will keep it safe.

While we’re warming up here I’m gonna tell you the best story that you’ve ever heard in your life. So I met this woman, and I went home to her house with her, already a great story. x

We all have bullets beneath our skin we pray our lovers won’t flinch at when they find.

Wonderful Humans- 

I had such a blast at Sofar Sounds in April. What a rad format and fantastic environment for both the artists and audience members. This was just released today.

In your arms I forget what the yarn knows of sweaters, I forget how to hold myself together.
