Dear Listeners, 

Happy 2024 to you, in all its weirdness. 

I’m working on NEW MUSIC and will be sharing little bits of it and my process with you as I go along. For now, I’m putting the videos on Instagram and my Facebook Page and will link to them on my blog (sorry I let that lapse, somehow I managed to forget blogging existed). Here’s the first, a snippet of a song with the working title “Supernumerary”

What else? There are a few concerts in the immediate future:

March 15 - ArtYard - Frenchtown, NJ

March 16 - Underground Arts - Philadelphia, PA

March 17 - Le Poisson Rouge - NYC, NY

March 21 - Big Ears Festival - Knoxville, TN

The show in Philadelphia is opening up for my old friends, the Sleepytime Gorilla Museum. My connections to members of that band go back 20+ years to my 964 Natoma days. I first encountered Nils Frykdahl in the previous millennium while he was playing amplified flute in the rafters of the warehouse along with Dan Rathburn making noise and sparks with an arc welder that illuminated butoh performer Shinichi Moma Koga contorting himself on a metal grate. Anyway, Sleepytime is a delightful group of very talented avant garde art rockers and this year needs more of their unfiltered catharsis. I immediately said yes when they asked if I would play for one of their East Coast dates to support their new album.

The Big Ears festival is something I’ve wanted to play at for almost a decade, so I am beyond thrilled to be added this year. I’ll be sticking around for the festival to hear as many of the other artists as possible, it’s off the hook, check it out https://bigearsfestival.org/

More concerts dates are coming in the autumn. East, west, middle, as many as I can fit in ;-)

Thank you for listening!

celloly yours, Z

To @imogenheap , Guy Sigsworth, @zoecello , and all of the touring and production staff involved in helping with the Mycelia tour: Thank you so, so much for everything I could have wished for in a tour. It was a magical and heartfelt performance and I mouthed along to just about every lyric with a huge smile on my face. As Imogen sings in “The Dumbing Down of Love”, ‘Music is worthless unless it can make a complete stranger break down and cry.’ And tears of happiness are what I wanted to cry tonight. Thank you so much again @imogenheap for an experience I will never forget! #imogenheap #chicago #concerts #music #myceliaworldtour (at The Vic Theatre) https://www.instagram.com/p/BxeFGXbA4vv/?igshid=d1ab683aeo6x

Several years ago I found myself taking walks in the woods listening to the instrumental cello music of @zoecello - Her music helped me through a season of depression. It spoke on a gut level where words couldn't be found or delivered. . This upcoming holiday season can be tough for lots of people. Commit to do what you need to in order to get healthy, or engage with those around you who need you, but most likely won’t ask. . "Zoe (life)" gouache on 9x12 Yupo paper. Available for purchase.

Spotify is not a music company. This is what Neil Young’s gesture made clear to many, many more people this week. But lots of musicians have known it for ages, because the fact is that Spotify doesn’t value music. Indeed, its financial success as a company depends on the perception of music as valueless.

Elementary Live Tweet: 5x13 Over A Barrel "Sherlock has a new look. #Elementary"

I'm just now hearing about what happened in Quebec. Terrible, awful. Unfortunately crappy timing on all the Quebec talk in tonight's ep.

Lastly, I know I speak for our whole staff when I say that we're thinking about those affected by the shooting in Quebec tonight. Goodnight.

Brownstone business

Quiz Time! Can you name the three episodes in which these opening scenes occur?

The opening three scenes - in order - take place within the chronology of Dead Clade Walking, Bella, and Down Where the Dead Delight.

Of the opening three scenes, I wrote 2 of the source episodes, and @CraigSweeny wrote the other. Nod to our previous work. 

We wanted to use these opening flashbacks as a nod to the idea that Sherlock and Watson can't take EVERY single case they're offered.

We talked a lot about this in creating this episode. We think that, by now, they're probably offered dozens a month that they turn down. 

We're hoping for twenty-seven more seasons of the show. By the end, Sherlock will be an android and Clyde will be sentient.

Don't worry, you will see Sherlock and Joan "pay the piper" in just a moment...

The final moment of this episode - I won't spoil what it is - is TOTALLY REAL. That actually happened on our sets in December.

Case of the week

If you like @IsiahWhitlockJr - and why the hell wouldn't you - you're going to be AWASH in his glory this evening. He's amazing.

This episode has one hell of an ending. STAY TUNED Y'ALL. 

The supporting cast in this episode - led by @IsiahWhitlockJr - is INCREDIBLE. I was really, really excited about our cast list. 

I was pumped to put Watson in a situation of danger and to see her be a composed badass throughout. She doesn't shrink from fear...

You'll notice that the date of Conor's attack was January 29th... WHICH IS TODAY OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD!

[@IsiahWhitlockJr: The clock is ticking, Sherlock... statute of limitations runs out... tonight ]

The Sylmar Bust is, in fact, the biggest smuggling payload in history. How do I know? READING, Y'ALL. BOOM.

AMAZING performance from @IsiahWhitlockJr in that last diner scene with @LucyLiu. Makes my mediocre writing seem distinctly less mediocre.

Wait, what the hell did he say was inside that barrel? PLOT TWIST.

[@IsiahWhitlockJr: Maple syrup? Sheeeeeeeee-it!]

I went to college in Vermont, so I'm well versed in the controversies of maple syrup. All this stuff about quotas is true. 

"Shoot first, ask questions never" is my favorite line from this episode. 😀

Helena Blavatsky is a real woman - and a total badass. She was writing and working at a time when it was very difficult for women to do so.

If I ever publish a book, I'm going to demand that my author photo is the same as Helena Blavatsky's.

This Act Four is tense.... I'm sweating over here.

.@LucyLiu and @IsiahWhitlockJr are amazing in this final diner scene. I've got chills, and I've seen this episode like 19 times already.

Framing this case as Sherlock Holmes vs Time Itself comes from @CraigSweeny. Brilliant way to look at it.

Behind the scenes

Hi, hi, hi! It's me! Jeff, Jeff, Jeff! Ready for another thrilling installment of #Elementary. I KNOW I AM.

I gotta give mad props to @CraigSweeny for his help on this episode. His guidance was invaluable. He's also super handsome, so that helps.

[@CraigSweeny: @ELEMENTARYStaff You advance two assertions here.  Only one is true.]

The amazing cello music in the opening diner scene is written and performed by @zoecello. We've been using her music since Season 1.

I've been wanting to do a ticking clock Statute of Limitations episode forever. This setup finally gave us the opportunity. 

One of the companies Sherlock reads off for Jack - "Hardcastle Beam" - is a nod to my mother. Her maiden name is Hardcastle. Very English.

For this episode, we filmed with a drone to create the overhead footage.

We had a lot of fun thinking up a name for the gang from Queens. I voted for "The South Queens Friendship and Cocaine Crew."

We used visual effects to add more barrels to the derelict building. Here's the BEFORE shot.

All the close-ups of WALL CLOCKS in this episodes were shot weeks after the original scenes were filmed. #Production

I love the diner that we used in this episode. Our locations department is amazing. It's the Lindenwood Diner in Brooklyn.

For you non-hockey fans, "Les Habs" is the nickname of the @CanadiensMTL. But I wouldnt know; I'm a @NHLBruins fan.

The final song of this episode is "Tropics" by @mymorningjacket. Incredible tune.

Thank you all so much for hanging out with me this evening! It's nice to get back to live-tweeting our episodes without football in the way.

We're off for a handful of weeks, but @writergeekrhw is up next on February 19th with a NEW episode!

I hope you all enjoyed watching the episode as much as I enjoyed writing it. And thanks again for hanging out!

The US budget is $3.8 tril. The budget of the NEA is $146.2 mil, or 0.003847%. Eliminating arts funding isn’t fiscal policy, it’s symbolism— Zoe Keating (@zoecello) January 19, 2017

Notes move over mists

These speak quietly to me

Passing through my heart

My affinity for Ms. Keating’s music continues to grow. Overlaying my delight in music and technology, she speaks to a deep part of my soul.

Finally had the opportunity to see @zoecello live! So much love and admiration for her creative mind and passionate playing. And it was really cool to hear her tell some stories behind a few pieces I've been listening to for 6 years, got to hear them in a whole different way! (at Ruth B. Shannon Center for the Performing Arts)
