Todd and I spend an hour wasting an hour talking about starting a small business.

Nelson and I talk about live sound and Teslas.  He’s been So’s live sound engineer for the last 3 or so years and he’s our 5th member on stage every night.  He’s a really smart dude, and great at his job. He also loves MMA and snowboarding, none of which we talked about, but we will. @nel_dorado on instagram

Angelica and I sit down and talk about her childhood growing up in Puerto Rico, life in a part of America where you have no say over who your president is.  We hardly scratched the surface.  (In a good way)

Grey and I sit in his living room and talk improvisation, Roseanne Barr, and what it means to be alive. 

This is the title track called “Blindless Sea of Light” off a new album due out in March of the same name by Grey Mcmurray.

The ending track is from a project So Percussion did with Grey Mcmurray and Emily Johnson and Ain Gordon called Where (We) Live.  This is the final track off the album called “Thank You”

I sat down with Adam Tendler and we chatted politics, religion, music, what being 'safe' means, among many other things, all over 4 lovely Vermont Beers.
