Everything's so close

If you fight the wave, it will pull you under. If you ride the wave, it will push you farther.

Last Minute Viper Show

Doin a fun little acoustic set at Viper Room tonight. Got some fun tricks up my sleeve too. Free show! Fun comedy show downstairs too. No matter what happens in the end (of our lives) I know I’ll always appreciate the fact that I get to go out and throw down; i feel a part of some kind of underground- disconnected underground. I like to be adding to the community energy. That’s where the art is. holla.

I went to New York to get into trouble; to come back feeling like someone different. And though I will admit I feel a hop in my step in these early days of September, it is always so clear that this different person I “want” to be always resides inside- even if buried under layers and layers of baggage and judgment and self-destructive rationalizations. Allz I gotta do is be open enough to let him through. Cuz we’re all just standing uncomfortably together on the subway, waiting to get off and do it all again.

Survive Irene, Survive Irene, I See You Comin' For Me

New York is always inspiring to me. There’s a communal appreciation for the hustle; there’s an unspoken respect that glues the city together in a fight for survival. New York has been hit with a massive winter, a tornado, an earthquake and now a hurricane all this year. They got heart and once again I’m blown away by the spirit of my bruthas and sistas in the east. Everybody is helping one another, advising one another to be safe… there’s a community here that everyone in the world should be able to witness at some point. West coast fa’eva, but big ups to the big apple.

August Blog'st

Played an awesome show up in the hills at Alan Singer’s house this last saturday. I’ll tell you, I don’t think i’ve ever met such a dope, diverse and open group of people in one place ever. There’s so much world out there, and so many different paths; and it’s so refreshing to see how eclectic the human species is. Talk about creative inspiration… dayum! got some new songs and videos comin. Shows tba shortly.

Writing A Song

I’ve been doing a gripa songwriting recently- not a bad way to make a buck btdubs- and i’ve encountered a good question on my quest for great art: Is it the pouring out of emotion that inspires a good song? Or is it the process of trying to write a song itself that induces emotional connection? In other words, it’s not necessarily that I have to feel something to be able to write. Rather, when I am in song-mode I can open up to the possibility that every moment- every person i see, every commercial i watch, every bird I hear, every gossip tale i eavesdrop on- may contain a story, a feeling. There’s songs all around us, you just have to listen. That sounds like a quote, if aint nobody said it yet, it’s mine, called it.
