Last year my @friendsof___ asked me if I wanted to work on another music video (or two) together after the success of creating a silly and whimsical video for his single “Mushroom Disco”. I said yes but only if we could film the videos on location in Mexico City, featuring the artists on the tracks who live there, and celebrating elements of the city that they love and we do too.
The results make my heart melt. We had the pleasure of popping around to a few touristy spots yes, but also filming inside some our friends studios, homes, and businesses and including local artisans, people we met on the street, and an assortment of serendipitous energy bringing these stories to life.
We filmed around the weekend of Dia de Los Meurtos so there’s a certain magical quality in the air in the visuals we created during such a vibrant time.
Here are some behind the scenes on film from our journey.
The music video for “Delicious” is now live on YouTube (linked). Please enjoy this perfectly uplifting song for the summer 🪩

Life comes at you fast. One day you’re spinning records and traveling the world, or working on your funk album and eating cheese in the stu, when suddenly you get a message from two quirk’d up white boys who created the dopest show this side of the Atlantic and want YOU to co-host it.
Band of Strangers gives all four of us the chance to travel around California looking for musicians who want to connect on a genuine level. No networking, no ladder climbing: just people who want to make an incredible album from scratch with people they’ve never met, and in many cases will NEVER meet.
This whirlwind adventure to Bombay Beach Biennale captures the spirit of our state - wide open spaces, endless creativity, sun and surf and surf and turf, and diversity in every conceivable way.
We recorded with artists from all over the globe, including the Inland Empire, to make a song that’s at once ephemeral and indelible. It’s a snapshot of these artists at this specific moment in their lives - the people they love, the fights they fight, the dreams they have: all rolled into what I guarantee you will make the hairs on your neck standup and your leg go stanky.
So thank you for being a part of this ride with us and know that we’re just getting started on this journey to bring you music as it was meant to be made - with love and in community.

They don’t call him Zeke Nasty for nothing. But can our multi-instrumentalist Svengali @friendsof___ whip up a musical sandstorm?
