  • The crazier the world gets, the more I crave that slow, crawling, smoky blues guitar. The healing vibes of blues music has always been my therapist, and the communicative nature of it speaks in every language. Take a moment to let the music lower your blood pressure, lay back, turn the volume up, and join me in a little blues meditation. Maybe it will help give the collective consciousness the chill it needs.

SO much better than Jack. The American Prairie Bourbon is my favorite sipping whiskey now. Glass highball, no ice, no water, room temp... I'd love to see a High West barrel Tele. If you ever make one, let me know! I'd love to be the first to buy one! 👍🏻
