A few months ago, I asked my best friends for a gift: come out to @sonicranch and help me make my record.
Life has its ways of keeping you busy, so the FINISHING is taking a while, but man… it’s so god damn good and I am really lucky I have such supremely talented pals. Can’t wait to share these jams when they’re finished, but here’s one off the floor.
I almost didn’t post this because I’m pretty positive this is a preeeeeetty big departure from the fantastic original. But that’s part of the game I guess. I guess I should go turn on some Simon and Garfunkel.
Covering songs from memory. Warren Zevon eat your heart out. I listened to this song religiously on my drive home for most of January so it’s pretty seared into my brain.
Drums: take 15
Bass: take 6
Guitar: take 8
Keys: take 6
Vox: take 8
No comps except for one shitty cymbal hit.
Don’t usually post about my directorial work, but this stuff is just too fun to not.
Shot with a wonderful team and deep homies and made some beautiful, funny, fun work for T-Mobile
Directed by yours truly

If you aren’t rocking so hard you feel like you’re gonna melt, are you even rocking at all?
Been a big few months. Almost as big as 5 years ago when @nicolestark and I got married and had a kid. Well. That was pretty big. Last couple months have had some big swings though. Shooting in the states and abroad. A few shows without any rehearsal but homies with the music in their bones. Directing some proper ads for T Mobile with my dear buddies helping me pull it off. Colombia. Colorado. California. Lots of Cs over here. Keep melting away my summer popsicles.
