Jake Mcelfresh from Front Porch Step
Raw, unfiltered, uncut. This conversation I had with Jake Mcelfresh, who plays under the moniker of Front Porch Step, is a person on the verge of something. I was really lucky to capture this moment and walked Jake through a lot of different topics like how to cope with loss, anxiety and religion. Nothing is off limits and I am glad that Jake was so open with me.

Nick Bogardus, ex-Thrice manager & Cross Of Christ Church
Nick Bogardus is an extremely old friend and has lived most of his life directly connected to his passions, music & God. He managed Thrice, under his management company called New Noise, from their infancy to their meteoric rise in the early 2000's and beyond. He then walked away from the music industry to pursue his relationship with God and now is the pastor of his own church here in Orange County, CA called Cross of Christ. A very reflective conversation that I am glad to bring to you.

Eddie Breckenridge from Thrice
Late one evening, myself and Eddie (the bassist of Thrice) sat down to discuss many things including anxiety, being focused on the music alone and his father's passing. Eddie and I have known each other for awhile so this was very free flowing and given the time of night, a bit wandering. We get to some pretty deep places and his outlook on creativity is inspiring.
