Two Thumbs Music is a guy who writes about music. He never pursued music as a career. After three years of band he hated his clarinet. He tried to learn guitar, but didn’t get very far. His piano playing showed even less effort. Today the guitar and piano in his house do a great job collecting dust.

But he still loves music, and still actually pays for it. He thinks you should too. In the age of streaming it has only gotten more difficult to make a living creating original music. If a musician you love sells their recordings, buy them, whether on CD or digital download. Then feel free to stream them too.

Here you will find writing about new and old recordings, live performances, and other relevant topics, with an emphasis on Pacific Northwest artists, up and coming talent from anywhere, and old favorites of the blogger.
