Oh Alela, you have no idea how beautiful is to find this post/letter/thoughts for someone who doesn't use social media. I am grateful because it's a cozy way to connect. Thank you for all your work, thank you for your amazing art and thank you for always giving me reasons to keep going.

Reading this from my Edwardian on the south coast of England and dreaming of that sunshine you mention. Alas, the rain is hitting the windows and the grey sky is so low you can almost touch it. But this post has given me warmth, and reminded me of the things that really matter - family, creativity, music and love. Very grounding. Thank you Alela. Oh, and please come tour the UK again! Brighton has a space for you :-)

So happy to find you here, looking forward to more. This is the first substack of an artist that I've followed, mostly moved here for news and analysis, but I'll be so much happier to find it interspersed with life and music. Thanks Alela

I, too, can't wait for your Endless Thread to continue without end (as you suggest!)!

I listen to you every day, and you have a beautiful voice and I love your music!
