Amidst a pandemic, musician Rick Berlin quarantined in his Boston apartment and took to cataloging his personal artifacts and detritus in photos and text. The result is a poignant reflection on 75 years of life and of love in all its forms.


"[Berlin] populates his writing with memories that will break your heart and wisdom disguised as tossed off one-liners. Walk through Berlin's House, flip on the lights room by room, see what he has left there for you and all of us."

-Ryan Walsh, author of Astral Weeks: A Secret History of 1968

Berlin, Rick: - Rick Berlin, the queer Boston music legend formerly the frontman of Orchestra Luna, Berlin Airlift, Rick Berlin: The Movie, The Shelly Winters Project, and currently of The Nickel & Dime Band, is known for his zany lyrics and unflinching wit. Exploring boyhood, family relationships, and the dynamic social workings of Boston through the decades, Rick Berlin's work is "uncategorizable...part punk, part, musical theater, part sentimental sap, part wordplay master. Gold" (Amanda Palmer).
