achieving zero gravity.

just came out of a wonderful week out in Colorado, visiting towns i had not known existed & now after spending many meditative hours floating on snow, meeting the most genuine of peoples, & playing for wild crowds… all i want to do is plot to get myself out here again. i feel my soul has been stretched just a bit more.

i keep trying to discover an end to this exhausting existence in perpetual motion, but i just cannot. honestly i’m not a planner so big picture visualizations are not so much my forte. certainly, i have specific goals to meet within this often obtuse lifestyle but as for what “i am DOING”, my answer is saying YES a lot, risking everything, having fun & creating more for myself & music lovers. basically, the idea of achieving zero gravity while racing face first on a tiny platform down an incredibly steep hill blanketed by delicious fresh snow at dangerously high speed… this concept of risk & trust & applying it to yes music realm but the entirety of living. thank you to everyone who has also trusted me enough to take them on a soundscaped ride. i promise i won’t let you down.

keeping up w/ getting down

i LOVE when its nearing the winter season & there’s car lots filled w/ butchered trees, red & green spazzed out retail all up in my grill,everything in my co-op smells like gingerbread & expensive wine, but yet its 70degrees & i’m biking around Oakland in a t-shirt. things just ain’t like they used to be.

the last few weeks have just incredible for this woven world of music i exist in. been to several new cities; did a little run in the southeast to nashville, knoxville, & lexington & my gawwwwwd these crowds i will never forget. amazing numbers of inspired/expressive souls. re:convergence mini-fest in denver was mindblowing. shared the bill w/ some of my most honored producers/performers but fave peoples as well; colorado heads are wild!!! such thick AWEsome vibe… everyone appears so connected, it’s like experiencing the collective inhale/exhale. that’s some unprescribed, unpredictable, untamed medicine right there. brrrrraaaaannnng it….!
