I can’t believe @btmbrkt is getting to share a stage with so many legends of emo music, and better yet at a venue that’s felt like a second home to us. Rumor has it that tickets are running low, so get one soon if you plan on coming!!

There’s a surplus of juicy clean leads all throughout “You Are the Daydream”, a @parachutedayil staple that we re-recorded for the debut album. A lot of concentration and finger stretching are required to nail the guitar parts, but they all fit together perfectly like puzzle pieces.

Catch PDay next at Rochaus in West Dundee, IL on Wednesday, December 17 - it’s my first show with the band since our album release!

For the first time in a long time, @looming_band rocks today at @dumbrecs in celebration of 10 years of Nailbiter, and I’m so honored to get to join in and play songs that have meant so much to so many people in the Springfield DIY scene and beyond.

Here’s a snippet of guitar from “Cotton Tongue”, the second track on the record and one of my favorites. See you all tonight 🤘❄️

Playing riffs for my dog @leonardoinchicago again 🦁

This is the outro section for “Hope as a Discipline”, the final song off the debut @parachutedayil album “Seasonal Expression”. It sure requires a lot of discipline to nail the lead line all the way through, but the result sounds so intricate and infinite. 🌎

Tuning: DAEAC#E

Played on ol’ reliable, my @reverendguitars Double Agent OG🥑

It’s long overdue but I realized I gotta give the people what they want. Here’s a verse from “You’re Finally Awake” from the debut @parachutedayil full length. Enjoy!! 🍜
