A year ago today, we lost arguably the most prolific #songwriter in #seattle a “big brother” to a scene, an advocate for so many causes @chriscornellofficial Sending Love & Light to his family & friends. I didn’t know Chris personally, but his passing hit me hard, especially post the #templeofthedog shows & some pretty intense moments leading up to them. On the day he passed, I was scheduled to continue work with @thecomplexdialect on their album I was producing at @londonbridgestudio . When I got the news I called @phoenixchild and told him that I just didn’t think I could make it into the studio that day, that I would be useless. He said “I support you if you need to process on your own, but the best thing you can do is come in, be with your community, and keep making music.” I’m reminded today what an incredibly special #seattlemusic #pnw tribe we have. Let’s keep on taking care of each other fam. To quote another prolific mentor “I’m lost, I’m no guide, but I am by your side, I am right by your side.” 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼 (at Seattle, Washington)

My @kamakahawaii 100 year anniversary #tenorukulele arrived yesterday in #seattle Couldn't be more excited after a visit to the #kamaka factory in #hawaii last week. Such a cool family run business that puts quality & #craftsmanship first, hires & trains local, honors tradition while staying forward thinking & relevant. #pnw #musicmatters #believeinmusic #instrumentofpeace (at London Bridge Studio)

This band is on #fiyah 🔥 #Repost @phoenixchild ・・・ I finished my parts today (minus solos). This has been a serious dream come true. I love my band. I love everyone that worked on this album. @ericlilavois brought the best out of all of us. I feel so blessed. Like we left everything we could give this album in the studio. I can't wait to share this with you all. #thecomplexdialect #finished #sortof #music #guitar #phase2 #newalbum #progress #seattle #recording #londonbridgestudio #relief (at London Bridge Studio)

What #books or #authors have had a profound effect on your life? I've given many, many copies of #palocohelo #warriorofthelight to colleagues & artists and still find it to be a daily source of inspiration. #taketimetoread #taketimetogrow #challengeyourmind

Nice surprise today, I humbly appreciate the appreciation 🙏 Thank you @recordingacademy News of the proposal to eliminate the #nationalendowmentforthearts reaffirms just how critical it is that we all stay informed #supportmusic and continue to advocate on behalf of music creators, and the arts which so deeply enrich our lives!
