This summer was so amazing, I am feeling very grateful for being able to play so much music this year and to meet so many new friends

It was probably one of the craziest but funnest year I have had, from visiting 8 different countries and playing around 50+ plus shows, my heart is so full and I cannot wait to do it again soon hopefully ❤️

Welp! Our aftermovie needed a little more time to cook! 🎬🌲

And honestly? Worth the wait.

Our most beautiful, fully encapsulated aftermovie yet. Every late-night set, every familiar face, every ridiculous little moment that somehow becomes a core memory. Wicked Woods 2026, you were something else.

A massive thank you to @nowayjoseproductions for the FOURTH edition of our aftermovie, and to @kiamythos_films and @dinomikeg for all the work you’ve put in over the years and for helping bring this one together. It’s been incredible growing alongside you all and capturing this world as a team, year after year. What a journey it’s been. 🖤

And a shoutout to @jasdaviess and @nicknaylormedia for contributing some seriously epic shots to bring it all together.

So, without further ado (and before we get any more emotional about it)…

The Wicked Woods 2026 Aftermovie is officially yours! 🔊🔥

Turn it up, find your people, and take a little trip back to the Woods.

We’ll meet you there! 🌲

Having been to Shambhala many times, I always heard friends raving about @wickedwoodsmusicfestival 🐇 

It happened to be that this year, the stars aligned so I could join as a visual artist on crew. All the things I always heard were confirmed; the insanely beautiful campground, the immaculate vibes and music, and the one big homie fest with so many beautiful and familiar faces from the west coast scene ❤️‍🔥 as I wind down from this summer with a heart full of gratitude, I look back on this experience with so much joy. 

It was a rainy weekend this year which initially led me to work through a lot of personal disappointment as I didn’t get my piece quite to where I had hoped for. But nonetheless the experience was rich and the lessons plentiful! I’ve been shifting my focus from perfectionism to one more of play and practice. And hell, we sure still played in the rain! 🐇 Big ups to every artist, crew and attendee that showed up with full spirits despite the weather ❤️‍🔥

The two white bunnies represent ‘Centzon Tōtōchtin’ - a collective of Aztec deities in the form of 400 rabbits that were associated with ritual intoxication, most commonly through the sacred drink of Pulque. Pulque was tied closely to the moon and night, and there are many connotations to the spirit world via this sacred drink. In my version, the two bunnies hold a rose, to represent the many close friends we have lost in this scene. We are losing far too many, gone way too soon, and it’s more important now than ever to check-in and take care of eachother. Sending out love to anyone who resonates with this 🌹

Thank you so much @wickedwoodsmusicfestival - till next time ✨

@wickedwoodsmusicfestival that was nothing short of epic ⚡️🔥

On Friday night @elektriccollective took over @thehallowstage with an aerial, LED and fire display, closing out @its.justjohn’s set through the changeover to @kimatimusic with a finale that felt straight out of a movie. In a serendipitous moment, we were serenaded by an unreleased collaboration between both artists - a soundtrack that felt written for the moment. There’s no feeling quite like being on stage surrounded by some of your dearest friends and creative partners, feeling the heat of the flames on your face while locked together in flow state.

Three years ago I had a distinct vision of what I wanted to bring to this stage, and I’ve spent the years since developing the skills, experience, and resources to execute it. Just moments before, in the backstage chaos, I questioned how on earth I’d convinced so many people to believe in the insanity required to bring something like this to life - and I’m still in awe of how it all came together. With this many moving parts, none of it would’ve been possible without every single dedicated team member (12 of us on and off stage) bringing their best and stepping up. It’s inspiring what can be accomplished when you surround yourself with the right people, trust their abilities, and give them ownership of their work. I’m so, so proud of this team, and I can’t wait to do it again.

Full recap coming soon 💫

Decided last minute to go to Wicked Woods alone and ended up being one of my favourite weekends ever. Definitely recommend going to a fest alone if you want to expand the bubble and meet new people. Thankful for everyone I met and all who invited me to hang in their friend group. My cup is fullllll ❤️✨
