Forever Heavy

One of the first songs I learned to play on drums was this song called Silver Tongue. I wrote this jam a few years back when @astralnauts was still a thing, and I’ve never forgotten how this song came came to fruition. After I hacked out the initial riff one night in #claremont , I took it back to the lab with the boys and in a matter of minutes, we had the whole song structured and complete. The #creativespirit was definitely working through us! I still fucking love this song and over the years, and especially recently, the lyrics have taken on a new meaning. Crazy how time can do that. Honorable mention to my brothers @hugh_hephner and @borbzz and Nathan Borbon (who doesn’t do #instagram and wrote the drum track). #astralnaut #drums #originalmusic #paradoxfox #creativityfound #santacruz #chino #gootg #tama #ucsc #diymusic #musicmajor #diymusician #blessings #abundance (at UC Santa Cruz)

This is an old video from a few weeks ago with one of my best friends and biggest inspirations, @slashimi_ (Andy Huynh). He not only gave me the encouragement and support to move out to Santa Cruz, but also to push myself with the guitar and music (and life) in general. For years now he’s been one of my favorite people to make music with, and now we share the dope practice space you see us jamming in with some other super talented and inspiration dudes.
