I’ve been working on a large painting in collaboration with my pal @benjaminmadden . It’s fun to meet other people who make music and paint and generally see the creative process as an expression of something larger, amorphous and not as narrow as a specific field or genre. I’ll share more as we finalize!
EPISODE 140 - BRANDON BOYD
Jaymee hosts Brandon Boyd-frontman of the iconic band Incubus, painter, surfer, lifelong spiritual explorer and new father -for a playful and thoughtful conversation about creative morality and the toll of success after decades in the spotlight. Brandon reflects on the strange miracle of a band of friends from California growing into one of the most beloved rock groups of their generation, while somehow managing to keep their sense of humor, experimentation, and inner life intact. Jaymee and Brandon explore the process of songwriting while driving, the sacrifice the muse asks of its receiver, the divine paradox hidden within truths, forging your own spiritual path, the wisdom we earn through what we wouldn't wish upon ourselves, and the ideal beauty of being a new father at 50. #loveistheauthorpodcast

In this episode, we welcome Brandon Boyd. Best known as the lead vocalist and lyricist of the multi-platinum band Incubus, Brandon has cultivated a parallel life as a painter, writer, and visual artist. He has published three books of visual art, exhibited internationally, and created large-scale installations and residencies across the U.S. Across music and visual work alike, his creative output returns to themes of impermanence, identity, nature, and transformation. Alongside his work with Incubus, Brandon continues to release solo music while expanding into acting and mentorship.
In this conversation with Tyler Lapkin of the Joseph Campbell Foundation, we explore where creativity begins, Brandon’s movement between music and painting as a single inner current, the influence of myth and Joseph Campbell, and the artist as a conduit for something larger than the self.

I like painting stories while listening to stories. This one in its most nascent stage but filled with possibilities. I hope your January is treating you well.
