We all want to be free and have a good time. We want a few laughs, a few joints, and a few drinks among those we love. But, we know we're not going to be able to all our lives. Influenced by equal parts bossa nova, Memphis rap, and Etienne de Crecy, I wanted to create the sound of mai tais, hippie speedballs, and landlocked exotica. Here is a couple of good days we’ll be able to look back on, and forward to 🌺🍹🗿
