I enjoyed learning more about him and his music as he discusses the inspiration for his latest music and video. He states the importance of being in the moment to absorb those bits of creative sparks that are so quickly fleeting. He recalls his time on the beach in letting those moments flow. I&#8217;ll be thinking of this as vacation to the beach is quickly coming and I don&#8217;t want to bring too much work this time.
