So after a wonderful send off party and a fantastic night of music by the band that Jeremy put together up in San Francisco, (featuring: Jeremy Hilliard, Sean Leahy, Pete Canton, Daria Johnson and Trevor Garrod), we hopped in the Phoreal Pod and ventured across the country towards the east coast and thus began our coast to coast adventures and the start of a new and exciting  chapter.

We left Santa Cruz on Thursday and headed down to Los Angeles where we had another party set up with all of my brothers and So Cal family. It was such a fun night and a great finale to rock it with the original California crew. The next day found us in Arizona where we stopped in Winslow, home of the Eagles lyrics,  “Well I’ve been standing on the corner in Winslow Arizona, such a fine sight to see.” And hence, this would also be the start of the many musical places of references that we could stop in to entertain. The next day, we rolled through more desert badlands and stopped in Tucumcari, New Mexico. Now I have officially been to every town mentioned in the song “Willin”.

The next day we cruised through the Texas panhandle and into Oklahoma where a new song was born called, “Okahoma City” and then we went a little bit further where we were stoked to spend the night in the town of Okemah, the hometown of Woody Guthrie. The next day we headed into Tennessee and thought it only to be right to spend the night like a King, so we set the gear towards Memphis and stayed the night in Graceland. We checked out Memphis a bit more the next day which was very cool and we turned out another new song about “The Famous Memphis Panda”. Next up was Knoxville and then the home stretch of Virginia. The weather was beautiful the whole way and we finally made it to NYC for the scheduled Turbine shows. The friday night show in New Jersey was epic, a great reunion as many friends made it out that night to dance the night away. The next night Turbine played a homecoming show in Brooklyn and it was at this great club called Cameo and everyone was groovin’ and glad to have the band back in town. A fantastic weekend of music after a glorious trek across the country to make it all on time and we keep rollin on…

…and soon we’ll be spreading the word of the record label and spearheading new fronts in the new location and of course, will keep it all updated here.

Mad Love to y’all!
