One of my favorite moments from the last @galaxytwinsmusic Venice Beach boardwalk day — and to be honest my favorite project to date. I’ve always had a vision of being in a band like this: bringing together the best elements of rock and electronic music, fusing them into something original.

That being said — the whole improv/jam thing came completely outta left field.

I never saw myself being in a “jam band” — I’ve never been a fan of any jam band in particular and generally dislike the genre as a whole (I can *maybe* name a few Grateful Dead songs 😅) — but after playing with @iianjjoseph & @jonathanburx for the first time (and especially after recording our 1st album) I felt what people feel from jam/improv bands. The eternal chase for that perfect, fleeting moment. And the bliss when you’re able to capture it.

Every time I play with Galaxy Twins (including our extended improv family, who have made us grow in so many ways) I feel like I’ve evolved. It’s a live snapshot of my growth as a musician and I couldn’t be more honored to share that with y’all. Thank you 🙏

Had a blast trying out the fantastic @zutagroup pedals on my Novation Bass Station! While it excels at bass tones (duh 😜) I’ve always had a problem with higher octave lead tones sounding too weak/8-bit Nintendo — I think these pedals have solved that!

Pedals Featured —

Duality (two-channel distortion/overdrive)
Xpressor (Compressor)
FRED (Envelope filter + distortion)
Ström (Power Supply)

All mounted on Zuta’s beautiful Holy Rail pedal board. Thanks again to Zuta founder Baskim Zuta (@baskim) for the hookup!
