Our 4th studio album, āJoyrideā is out NOW!
What is Joyride? Glad you askedā¦
Itās the smell of the old wood at Suma.
Itās 100 hours in a shed with enough caffeine to kill a horse. (no horses were harmed, we love them).
Itās a 90ās band jamming 70ās tunes in 2024.
Itās a fireside jam session in fresh, squeaky-clean sneakers.
Itās insecurity shaking hands with optimism.
Itās the urge to rise from the ashes, phoenix-style, packing all our hopes and dreams into a van, and trying our best to make it fly.
Hit play, take a Joyride with us!
If you dig it, spread the word
Thank you for listening š§”
Love,
Doc Robinson

Visiting @glaciernps this past weekend was an amazing trip. Too much for one post, so Iāll start with the animals we were lucky enough to see (but not always catch on camera). In three days in the park, we came across otters, mountain goats, pikas, deer, golden-mantled ground squirrels, bighorn sheep, loons, and bald eagles. No bear or moose sightings while we were there, but it was still a wonderful experience crossing paths with this much wildlife in such a short amount of time. All of these photos were from the Highline Trail between Logan Pass and the Loop. #intothemountains #explore #exploreeverything #hiking #hikingadventures #highlinetrail #outdooradventures #microadventures #betteroutthere #hikelife #optoutside #nationalpark #glaciernps #glaciernationalpark

What are some of your favorite ways to practice?
One of my favorite things to do in my practice sessions is to play along with music. Sometimes that means recordings of songs that I know the parts to note for note, but I also enjoy playing to play-along tracks that donāt have any drums. It gives me the opportunity and challenges me to create an original, meaningful part to fill in a musical void that is asking to be filled, and the best part is, I can loop it in my DAW and try as many different ideas as I want. Sometimes I focus on developing a couple of particular ideas until I feel like itās cohesive, or I just play whatever strikes me each time it restarts, and sometimes I just improvise wildly, to get some energy out. This go around was an exercise in just putting something down after just a couple of quick listen throughs, and not overthinking it, which I personally find to be the biggest challenge most of the time.

This practice track was created by one of the most amazingly talented musicians that I have the privilege of calling friend, @tjhartmanndrums . Check out his killer drumming and sick as heck videos.
