Your August Edition is HERE
Yes, I know I missed July. The guilt was eating me alive so I figured it was time for a revamp!

YOUR COMMUNITY MATTERS
Me and my SISTERS!
It’s easy to focus on what we can get from our networks, but the real magic happens when we shift into what we can give . Share knowledge. Uplift others. Support your friends’ art, music, projects, and milestones. When you show up with genuine care and no hidden agenda, people feel it—and that energy always finds its way back to you.
In an industry, a job hunt, or a dance floor, authenticity attracts aligned opportunities. And giving back builds the kind of community that will carry you further than any strategy or resume ever could.
Be real. Be generous. That’s where the power is.

August Spotlight
TY GUNNER
Ty Gunner is a rising force in the festival photography world, known for his ability to capture raw, electric moments across artists, events, and portraits. Though now based in ATL, his journey through the lens is deeply personal and undeniably powerful.
His style is fluid and intentionally ambiguous, allowing emotion to lead the frame. Whether he's shooting a headlining artist or a quiet moment between friends, Ty approaches each subject with the same grounded authenticity that sparked his creative path.
Ty’s work isn’t just about images, it’s about impact. In a world full of over-curated content, he brings something real. And in the ever-evolving festival space, that kind of authenticity doesn’t just stand out. It sets the standard.

Track of The Month
Spotlighting what’s now playing from my favorite underground artists.
Cover of his GigaSol EP
I discovered Atticus Rush on Soundcloud the other week and quickly realized this guy doesn’t have a bad song in his artillery. He has 312 Soundcloud followers and under 3K Instagram followers, so safe to say I’ve just discovered a hidden gem. His track “Need” has been on repeat for me for over a week now. If you like bass music that makes you YEARN, you’ll probably have it on repeat as well. Happy listening!
On That Note
THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE
I appreciate all 3,000+ of you for subscribing and giving me an opportunity to give back (almost) every month. Sending you love and light for the rest of your festival season. <3
