Let’s romanticize adventure and exploration again, but this time, let’s do it with a really killer soundtrack.
Go to your local independent 300-cap venue on a Tuesday night. Do it by yourself. Do it just because there’s a band playing. You’ve never heard of them? Good. That’s real adventure. That’s the real unknown.
Find music you never knew would give you goosebumps, get confirmation that shoegaze is just not your jam, but either way, you’re supporting art, music, and community.

This Way to the Barricade: Reclaiming Joy Through Live Music
MADStarlet (Studios) is one woman with a dream (and a dog), a suitcase full of cameras, her father’s legacy as her North Star, and a love of live music. It’s documenting my real life on the road. My imagined life in game. But most importantly, it’s where I’m breathing new life into it all through cinematic storytelling, gaming culture, a hunger for exploration, and the magic of music. This is where it lives, here on my little creative corner of the Internet.
Welcome to all those who have gone MAD.
