This was originally a song called “Who’s Gonna Buy Your Chickens When I’m Gone.” People say that Dylan learned it from a later version: Paul Clayton’s “Who’s Goin’ to Buy You Ribbons When I’m Gone?” In my mind it was Bob Dylan who really defined the song. 

This is part of a voice memo series I like to do. Recorded with an old iPhone set on a table in front of me. One take.

An original song about Mariupol. A city I have close ties with. The song is called "Hell Remembers, Heaven Forgets." It's currently age restricted and not viewable because of the video imagery. I've blurred it so the audio is still available. I'll make a new video for the song at some point, turning the video into a celebration of the city, rather than a lament for its loss.

Spent the night in the Sahara desert recently and learned how the Berber people approach rhythms. It was interesting to travel across Morocco. It rained in the desert.

Back to China after a handful of years. I used to live in Zhuzhou in the southwest. I call it Chinese Tennessee. This picture of me a is picture from the northeast. 

Some of my favorite music is erhu music as performed in an underpass in southwest Hunan Province. Zhuzhou. I heard it from people who had no legs, who struggled across the ground on discs.

Learning how to play an Irish flute to pass time in the car. Picked it up at a gift shop at the Cliffs of Moher in Ireland before making our way through Europe.
