Dreaming in Layers: Richard Flierl and the Sound of Dotsun Moon
I conducted this interview several months ago, but its ideas have lingered in ways that feel increasingly relevant with time.

Doug White’s Christmas Time Once More
For the second time this season, Doug White is popping up on my NL Music Advent Calendar — and I’m more than happy to make room.

“It turned out alright,” White says — a bit of an understatement.
Christmas Time Once More feels sincere and joyful. It’s the kind of song that sits comfortably in my holiday playlists.
You can find Christmas Time Once More wherever you stream your music.
"And in the mornin', I'm makin' WAFFLES!"
Aren't these vintage waffle makers just darling? They were photographed by Doug White for the November 1940 issue of Electrical Times. Doesn't this make you want to put on some coffee, turn on some jazz, and whip up some batter? 😋
