The 2018 Loma tour (featuring me, Emily Lee, Emily Cross, Dan Duszynski, and Matt Schuessler) is about to hit the east coast of the US and Canada, starting in Atlanta and ending in Chicago.
We’ve just finished an epic journey across the west coast, and if you’re thinking about coming to one of these shows, you won’t regret it…playing with these musicians has been one of the most rewarding musical experiences of my life. The show is (60%) quiet and meditative, but also intense and hypnotic—and people who’ve seen it have told me they’ve never seen us look so joyful. I believe them.
Hope to see you out there. See dates.

Come join the unofficial Shearwater Discord server! Some excellent fans thought we all might like a place to hang out online - you folks are the greatest, and you all should have a way to meet each other. (We may drop in from time to time…) Thanks to Melissa, Tom, Helena, Ian, & Ali! discord.gg/hYFeM9F5Qu
A great day yesterday with EL, our dear friend Michael, and the great Greg Calbi at Sterling sound. It’s an honor to work with his legendary ears - and hard to believe that this marks the end of production on the first Shearwater album since 2016. After the session we took the ferry back to manhattan from Edgewater - a view of the city I’d never seen. I felt very glad and lucky to be alive, and grateful to everyone who’s supported this album from its beginnings two years ago (in what feels like a different world). (JM)
I am keen to hear the record but very keen to hear how you glasses+mask with no fog?!
it's a very different world
So looking forward to it! Currently spinning 'Fellow Travellers'.
Awesome! I can’t wait to hear the new album! Enjoy the process and success!!
The world needs a new Shearwater album right about now!
We miss you here in nyc - can't wait for you touring this new one here soon 😊
SO EXCITED
I need it
After 500+ hours of work, we've just set a mastering date for the new Shearwater album. Before the end of this month. (Below are some of my notes from the first listen to the whole thing in sequence.) More on this story as it develops. (JM)
Is it matching what you heard on your heads?
Hang on, hang on a minute…. *less* reverb?! 😳
Giving us clues without giving us clues - I understand now
I'm almost certain these notes are in English. Almost.
Yes! And I am so enjoying your book
