It’s been a while since I shared my acoustic recording process. I have @x.fordofficial & @m.elliott32 . @kostajohnson on the Remote Engineering. I Love my job, but I definitely love my homies better. #ProducerLife #TrackingAcoustics #StayHomeMoney
Today we celebrate a true icon, my incredible wife @georgea_johnson . We’ve had a lot of major changes in our lives since her last birthday (which I spent in the ER) and I can’t imagine navigating ANY of it without her. Turns out life’s challenges become a lot easier to handle when the right person is there handling them with you. I am so blessed to have a wife that I can cry with, laugh with, and dream with all in the same breath. There isn’t a day that goes by where I don’t feel elevated by the love and support she gives me, and I know I wouldn’t be where I am today without her by my side.
Happy birthday Georgea Rae! 31 is already off to a better start (no broken bones), I can’t wait to see how high we fly this year!

- Spent her bday in the ER with my broken hip
- Had a lot of amazing people help me get back to full health
- New @darlaphilly music coming?? 👀
- 3 amazing weddings for 6 amazing people (TY @chrissaloucop and @constantunes for the iconic lift)
- Back on the road with the @madisonryannward family
