Sunshine State Showcase full interview with Tire Fire is out now!

We are so grateful to have the chance to talk about our motivations and inspirations, and it’s humbling to think some folks might enjoy hearing our story.

It’s like trying to take a picture of the moon... 🌙✨

Back in March, I caught up with the Tire Fire crew at my campsite at Suwannee Spring Reunion, and they are officially "expanding the lexicon" of what music can be.

They brought the chaos (the fun kind) and harmony to the campsite for one of my favorite conversations yet. We talked about:

🔥 Doom Cocoon: How MF Doom and Outkast influence high-speed banjo picking.
🔥 Why David Bowie was part of the vibe for their high-energy dance tent set.
🔥 Distance & Grit: How they keep the music and productivity alive while creating across Florida and Georgia state lines.
🔥 Imposter Syndrome: Why the only way through the "beautiful anxiety" of performing is to never quit!

Tire Fire is proof that the Suwannee campgrounds are the ultimate incubator for roots music. Thanks to Tire Fire for being on the show and all the folks, especially My Happy Ass Life and Panama City Comedy, who donated to my rental car fund and made it possible for me to get to Suwannee Spring Reunion to capture stories like this.
