What if we didn't keep our creative expression and

What if we didn't keep our creative expression and "real life" separate?. We have so many gifts,
soul calling energies,
creative expressions,
visionary ideas
that are being squandered due to limiting beliefs within us and that are then reinforced by society at large.

We feel a need to keep them separate from "real life" or that we aren't in safe places to totally be ourselves.

We have to do "real life" because we could never monetize our true gifts.

Who would listen and who would care?

The bottom line is that is really starts with what YOU think about you.

And often what we do think about ourselves is something we picked up from someone else.

As creative spirits, in whatever capacity, let's normalize tending to our inner world, our mental health, and owning our unique experiences and creating from THAT space.

That's where we can truly impact the world. 💙

I cannot tell you how many times this woman has hit the nail on the head for me.

She is one of the reasons I find social media to be a safe, inclusive, and a healing space in a sea of internet road rage, exclusivity, and polarization.

I'm someone who works REALLY effing hard on knowing myself, healing myself, and being the best version of me I can possibly be.

The motivation is to make impact, bring forth love and connection, and contribute to the greater consciousness.

It's way bigger than I am.

But in this process, I can feel I'm not enough NOW because I'm not the fully self actualized person I want to be.

I get caught in the trap of feeling like I need to "fix" myself, work harder, or prove my worth, or the choices I make in this life.

Nope...you don't.

I can grow, and in a much healthier way, without thinking I'm broken.

I can do the inner work without the pressure to work super hard, and then ostensibly being hard on myself.

The only person I need to prove my self worth to is me, not any one else...

Thank you @minna_b

Cheers to one original and totally unpretentious human...

This is long overdue...but we did an amazing interview with Mike Stover on his podcast The Stoverload Music Podcast. ⁠
⁠
Mike is a Chicago native like myself and it was a blast talking to him about our one-take music video with the crazy backstory, why we stopped being afraid to say what we take a stand for, and the new way of having a music career that is aligned with your authentic and spiritual self rather than a label. ⁠

We are the Rebel Archetype in Carl Jung's 12 Arche

We are the Rebel Archetype in Carl Jung's 12 Archetype with the secondary Sage Archetype.

I've come to learn that the truest form of rebellion is
unapologetically being your authentic self,
and knowing YOUR own inherent values while leading your life's path from that place.

We so often have been unconsciously injected with OTHER people's values and beliefs of what is important or how we should live our lives.

There were countless times I thought I was rebelling, yet I was actually self destructing...

allowing external factors to dictate my worth and self love.

I subconciously subscribed to thoughts and beliefs that didn't ring true for me...

that actually didn't belong to me.

This form of rebellion gives permission for others to shine their original light rather than to merely "go against" without deliberate intention.

There is purpose and meaning in TRUE rebellion.

If we individually felt worthy of being who we actually are, there would be a great deal less of rebellion in the form of destruction, but rather, creation.💙

Rest in peace, Lee Scratch Perry. His massive in

Rest in peace, Lee Scratch Perry.

His massive influence on dub reggae has caused it to be one of my favorites genres of music...

It has totally inspired us, even though we don't play music that's anything like it.

Lee Scratch Perry's perpetual inventiveness, constant exploration of new ways to make music, and diverse collaborations was ongoing throughout his life.

He "vastly expanded the possibilities of dub reggae in the 1970s, creating radical remixes that stripped songs down to their rhythm tracks and rebuilt them with samples (animal sounds, breaking glass, explosions) along with surreal echo and phasing effects to create hallucinatory aural spaces."

He truly was a Rebel Sage.

What's a Rebel Sage?

A Rebel/Sage Archetype 💠⁠

Rebelling from:⁠
~status quo⁠
~limiting beliefs⁠
~political oppression⁠
~subconscious conditioning…⁠
freeing ourselves to be the highest version of ourselves
(which inherently lives within us)⁠

*and*

Discovering the Inner Sage by:

~ living a life in full possibility⁠
~on a quest for inner freedom⁠
~connecting with our truths that are not tied to any fears… ⁠
~being guided by your own innate wisdom

Thank you, Lee Scratch Perry, for your incredible ear and creative genius that you brought to the world.

Your artistic contribution has changed the course of music. 🎶

A song I wrote for my dear one.... I post this at this time every year to honor my beautiful friend's life.

Several years ago, on August 24th, my dear and beloved friend, Dan,
took his life (2 days before his birthday).

I wrote this song for him.

He was obsessed with music and that was one of the many things we bonded over.

I made this video for the song with a few pictures of him, capturing him in moments of pure joy.

Dan, there is part of me that lives out this life to the fullest I know how...for you.

You are forever missed and loved eternally.💙 .

Throwback from almost exactly 4 years ago...this w

Throwback from almost exactly 4 years ago...this was taken at Outside Lands Music Festival in Golden Gate Park in San Francisco.

@cagetheelephant was playing and we were happy as clams!

🎶Our daughter has been seeing live music since she was a wee thing.

🎶She has had a live band practice below her since she was 8 weeks old (I frickin love noise machines).

🎶She looooves music and she has really good taste (with an occasional cheesy pop song that's not my cup of tea😅).

🎶She has listened to our new songs (as we are in final mixes/almost ready to be mastered😁) and has given us her take on the songs.

I will be starting her on piano lessons but she mostly has shown herself to be a music enthusiast rather than wanting to be a musician...

Noah and I will often think, "That may not be a bad thing😅."

It's definitely not for the faint of heart or an easy path.

But for us, we keep writing and recording music because we HAVE to...

And I mean HAVE in the sense like you HAVE to breathe air.

And our daughter sees us making art
and following our dreams
and continuing to be led by our deepest values
and express ourselves through creativity.

I believe filling your own cup and tending to our vision can be one of the most powerful ways we impact our children.💙

I know we look cool as cucumbers here, but we are

I know we look cool as cucumbers here,
but we are bubbling with excitement (had to) over the release of our upcoming singles with a special, exclusive presale of our album on the near horizon!

Eeeek!

More to come and can't wait to share it with you. 💙

Staying curious rather than having contempt feels

Staying curious rather than having contempt
feels much more aligned with how I want to LIVE this life...

curious about what I'm feeling and thinking
rather than judging it and making it bad or wrong
is an effing
game changer.

The judgement and criticism stops everything in its tracks...

especially growth and transcendence.

When I replace it with asking questions like...

"What is this trying to teach me?
What is this trying to show me?"

I observe the trigger rather than reacting to it like a gunshot wound.

I stay curious...with all of it. 💙

This concept has literally taken a stereotypically beautiful person to completely unattractive
and a non-stereotypically person
to absolutely stunning
in my eyes.

The inside is a total reflection of the outside.

Oh what our society would be if we put a greater emphasis on the internal being rather than the external...

Today we toast to one of the originators of rock d

Today we toast to one of the originators of rock drumming, the consummate professional and, something that everyone who knew him seems to agree on, an amazing human being in Charlie Watts.

Watts began his career with an interest in jazz drumming and then successfully brought the class, wit and dynamic feel of jazz drumming to rock and roll, and he did it with elegance, style and grace.

Equally important, in our opinion, Charlie taught the world something that we as musicians and performers hold very dear to this day: you can be hugely successful in the music industry and not be rude, inconsiderate, or cravenly starved for attention. He proved that you don’t have to be psychologically disturbed or gripped by the depths of despair to make music that is astoundingly powerful.

Not to say that he didn't have severe challenges, he struggled with addiction and overcame throat cancer.

Yet he always had a light hearted and a strong sense of humility throughout...

Thanks, Charlie, not only for being an all-time great drummer, but for being an inspiration to so many of us who are trying to make powerful music without all the drama.

Throwback photo...yet one of my faves from @joshmillerfoto.

Getting inspired as we do another shoot for our huge Presale of our album and the release of 3 singles.

Eeek! I'm so excited to share these songs with the world!

We mostly did studio shots our last one...will mostly be sticking to outdoor locations (and we happen to have a plethora here in the Bay Area).

❔What are some of your favorite, cool, kitschy, beautiful, artsy spots or scenes in the Bay Area?

❔If you don't live in the Bay Area, what do you like to see in a good band shot?

I promise we won't do any douchey brick wall or railroad track shots😅.

Take counsel from your consciousness rather than y

Take counsel from your consciousness rather than your fear...

waaaay easier said than done.

Yet with all of the messiness of my thoughts, feelings, emotions, and external stressors,

when I stop, ask, and listen to my inner being,

I *know* if I'm being counseled by my consciousness or counseled by my fear.

It doesn't mean the fear goes away,

or that it needs to be totally absent to shift,

or that I have to realize exactly where it comes from
in order to be aware...

it's still there.

But am I making CHOICES from that place? Am I allowing *it* to guide me?

Consciousness is always available,
but becomes less so when fear is DRIVING my thoughts, feelings, and emotions.

It's in my bones...

operating from a place of stress and fear is familiar,

like an addiction,

predictable,

running the same old neural pathways,

because the uncomfortable is SO comfortable😉.

So I start with stopping.

I ask for an answer.

My being speaks to me in silence.

From there,
when it's quiet and still,
I can then take counsel from my consciousness
rather than my fear.
