It was like a scene in a movie where a party full of artists in a Silver Lake backyard hang out casually listening to Cowboy Cinema perform. Or maybe that hasn't been in a movie yet. Either way, we played Apex Garden with the insanely talented @theangelgabriela and @morphinla. Thank you @rayger and @gofreakingcrazy taken in Silver Lake by @michaelhaertlein

It was a privilege to shoot with US Marine Corps Heavy-Lift Squadron 361 "Flying Tigers" on a UH-53E. Shooting with @foldedcuriosity is always fascinating. by @michaelhaertlein

I basically went nuts on this Netflix jail show, Unlocked Season 2, and had fun with ridiculous optical effects for joke shots. by @michaelhaertlein

It's here! The debut album for Cowboy Cinema, "Lighting Fires Along the Way," is available on Spotify, Apple Music, and every other streaming platform. You can also purchase a beautiful vinyl LP from our Bandcamp page (link in bio). This has been such a deeply personal project for @saintsalo and @michaelhaertlein, and we are honored to share it with you. by @michaelhaertlein

Jane Goodall once called me an idiot, and she was right. It was a highlight of both my career and life to spend time with her in Tanzania at her homes in Gombe and Dar es Salaam for the National Geographic film The Hope. She was a true rebel, a true badass, and the punkest motherfucker I've ever met. by @michaelhaertlein

At 98 years old, this woman, known as Zegbagbã (the broken pot), is by far the coolest person in Dzodze, Ghana. In this region, those practicing medicine will ask for a piece of a broken pot on which to mix the herbs. The broken pot has become the symbol of something thought to have no value but serving a powerful purpose. taken in Dzodze Volta Region by @michaelhaertlein

In this ceremony, Chief Torgbui Atsu-Dzesu granted us citizenship into his kingdom of Dzodze, Ghana. The citizenship was represented by the beads he bestowed upon us. The Chief could only be spoken to and would only speak through his official "linguist." I have met many Chiefs of many kingdoms over the years, and this ceremony stands alone as such a deeply meaningful and fascinating experience. taken in Dzodze Volta Region by @michaelhaertlein
