the road right now. Where are you at right now?

14
00:01:00.159 --> 00:01:02.719
Right now? We are in kind of near Cincinnati.

15
00:01:02.759 --> 00:01:05.079
We just played last night at this venue called the

16
00:01:05.079 --> 00:01:06.599
Blue Note and it was awesome.

17
00:01:06.599 --> 00:01:06.719
Man.

18
00:01:06.719 --> 00:01:08.959
It was a packed house and a bunch of people

19
00:01:09.040 --> 00:01:11.680
bought merch and people out there singing every single lyrics.

20
00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:14.519
So yeah, it was fun. Man. We're out here doing

21
00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:15.599
the doing the thing.

22
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:18.359
I love that I've heard of at venue too. That's

23
00:01:18.439 --> 00:01:20.680
like an iconic menus and venue.

24
00:01:20.760 --> 00:01:21.879
So that's cool.

25
00:01:22.480 --> 00:01:24.480
Yeah, they got I think they just had Jack all

26
00:01:24.519 --> 00:01:27.159
They got George Lynch coming in I think tomorrow night.

27
00:01:27.200 --> 00:01:29.760
So yeah, it was a cool spot all right.

28
00:01:29.799 --> 00:01:33.640
So you guys have this new single and no pun

29
00:01:33.680 --> 00:01:37.560
intended single looks good on you. What a great not

30
00:01:37.640 --> 00:01:43.079
only spring break party song, but also it gave me

31
00:01:43.280 --> 00:01:48.599
flashbacks of the eighties, you know, and flashbacks from the

32
00:01:48.840 --> 00:01:53.719
music perspective, not necessarily the scene, but just that that

33
00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:56.879
kind of party, fun music that we need right now.

34
00:01:57.879 --> 00:01:58.120
Yeah.

35
00:01:58.159 --> 00:02:00.239
Man, it's all in there. All those vibes are in there.

36
00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:02.680
And when we first started the band. It's funny when

37
00:02:02.760 --> 00:02:05.120
Jordan first came over when I was auditioned in singers,

38
00:02:05.159 --> 00:02:06.560
he was like, well, what are you kind of going for?

39
00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:08.840
And I'm like, man, it's like think about you know

40
00:02:08.919 --> 00:02:10.800
Van Halen. It makes you want to party and have

41
00:02:10.840 --> 00:02:13.599
a good time. And especially I started the band basically

42
00:02:13.639 --> 00:02:15.520
on the heels of COVID, so there's a lot of dark,

43
00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:18.400
depressing kind of times at that time, and I was like, man,

44
00:02:18.400 --> 00:02:20.159
I just want to have a sound and a vibe

45
00:02:20.199 --> 00:02:22.879
that makes you want to, you know, have a good

46
00:02:22.919 --> 00:02:24.879
time party, kind of gets your mind off all the

47
00:02:25.360 --> 00:02:26.960
stress going on in the world and stuff.

48
00:02:27.000 --> 00:02:28.840
So you know, that's another song like that.

49
00:02:28.960 --> 00:02:32.199
It's spring break party anthem and definitely got the Florida

50
00:02:32.280 --> 00:02:35.280
vibes in there. A little we don't really call it country,

51
00:02:35.280 --> 00:02:38.560
more like swamp rock, which is you know, it's, yeah,

52
00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:40.199
it's got some of the hair band vibes, but with

53
00:02:40.240 --> 00:02:42.639
a little bit more grit, kind of nastier you know,

54
00:02:43.840 --> 00:02:45.000
sound blended in there.

55
00:02:46.039 --> 00:02:52.520
And I also believe more musicianship than the Sunset Strip

56
00:02:52.599 --> 00:02:53.759
hair metal bands.

57
00:02:53.800 --> 00:02:53.919
Like.

58
00:02:54.479 --> 00:02:56.919
To me, it's got that party vibe, but it's also

59
00:02:57.039 --> 00:03:00.439
got the killer musicianship, so it's not like a gimmick.

60
00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:01.919
You're a true musician.

61
00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:03.680
Oh thanks man.

62
00:03:03.759 --> 00:03:07.719
So my thing was always like, again to kind of

63
00:03:07.759 --> 00:03:08.960
reference Van Haleen a little bit.

64
00:03:08.960 --> 00:03:11.240
I know a new no from Extreme talks about this too.

65
00:03:11.280 --> 00:03:13.960
But when you take a catchy having a catchy like

66
00:03:14.080 --> 00:03:16.840
pop rock kind of song with a big chorus and everything,

67
00:03:16.879 --> 00:03:20.280
but then doing these little things in between that, like

68
00:03:20.319 --> 00:03:22.240
when you peel back the layers and under the covers

69
00:03:22.240 --> 00:03:26.319
where you're kind of doing you know, doing flashy stuff

70
00:03:26.319 --> 00:03:28.879
on the guitar or whatever as long as it fits

71
00:03:28.879 --> 00:03:31.280
a song. But you know, it's not so much like oh,

72
00:03:31.360 --> 00:03:33.759
just strum chords and then guitar solo and whatever. Like

73
00:03:33.759 --> 00:03:35.280
like if you listen to Van Halen or some there's

74
00:03:35.280 --> 00:03:38.000
all these little easter eggs throughout the song, So yeah,

75
00:03:38.280 --> 00:03:40.280
kind of inspired by stuff like that where it's like,

76
00:03:41.080 --> 00:03:43.879
you know, like I said, when you peel back the layers,

77
00:03:43.879 --> 00:03:47.360
there's there's a lot to it, but it's still a palatable, catchy,

78
00:03:47.520 --> 00:03:48.400
you know, pop rock.

79
00:03:48.319 --> 00:03:48.919
And roll song.

80
00:03:49.719 --> 00:03:53.639
Absolutely, So tell us a little bit about what happened

81
00:03:53.719 --> 00:03:57.120
during COVID that made you want to start this project.

82
00:03:57.560 --> 00:03:59.879
You know, we know the obvious of what happened, but

83
00:04:00.240 --> 00:04:04.400
well happened for you personally that created this creativity.

84
00:04:05.599 --> 00:04:05.800
Yeah.

85
00:04:05.879 --> 00:04:08.520
So I've always been really into the creation of music

86
00:04:08.560 --> 00:04:11.039
and writing songs. I've always heard ideas and stuff in

87
00:04:11.039 --> 00:04:13.840
my head and always kind of had the vision to

88
00:04:13.879 --> 00:04:17.439
sort of start my own thing, and it just it

89
00:04:17.519 --> 00:04:20.040
takes so many years and time to find the right

90
00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:21.920
pieces to kind of get that off the ground. Because

91
00:04:21.920 --> 00:04:24.360
I was really looking for an X factor type voice,

92
00:04:24.839 --> 00:04:27.560
you know, someone that love them or hate them, you

93
00:04:27.639 --> 00:04:29.439
know that it's us as soon as you hear us

94
00:04:29.560 --> 00:04:31.160
come on. So I was really trying to find that,

95
00:04:31.279 --> 00:04:33.240
which that's not an easy thing to find, so that

96
00:04:33.279 --> 00:04:35.160
takes year. So I had a really high standard of

97
00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:37.439
what I was trying to create and the sound that

98
00:04:37.480 --> 00:04:40.680
was in my head. So in the meantime, you know,

99
00:04:40.680 --> 00:04:43.199
I was going to music school out in Hollywood and

100
00:04:44.079 --> 00:04:48.600
musicians Institute out there in California. And when I graduated,

101
00:04:48.639 --> 00:04:50.319
I got the opportunity to tour with a band called

102
00:04:50.319 --> 00:04:53.160
New Year's Day and we did arena tours with Hailstorm

103
00:04:53.240 --> 00:04:55.560
and in this moment, you know, God smack and that

104
00:04:55.680 --> 00:04:58.839
was awesome. But you know, when so when the world

105
00:04:58.920 --> 00:05:01.879
shut down, the COVID thing, we were on tour with

106
00:05:02.000 --> 00:05:04.480
New Year's Day, and that was we flew home from

107
00:05:04.519 --> 00:05:07.199
Germany two days before everything shut down.

108
00:05:07.519 --> 00:05:10.519
Wow, but you know, the silver lining and everything was.

109
00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:12.639
It kind of brought all the tour into a halt

110
00:05:12.680 --> 00:05:15.959
and allowed me to really, you know, reflect and kind

111
00:05:15.959 --> 00:05:19.000
of get this whole thing off the ground. And sure enough,

112
00:05:19.040 --> 00:05:21.439
when I went back to Florida, someone said, hey, you

113
00:05:21.439 --> 00:05:23.759
should try this guy. He plays in the local dueling

114
00:05:23.800 --> 00:05:25.959
piano bar, and I think he would sound great for

115
00:05:26.000 --> 00:05:28.560
what you're trying to do. So and of course I

116
00:05:28.600 --> 00:05:30.839
had tried singers in La, I'd tried singers all over

117
00:05:30.839 --> 00:05:32.399
the country. But of course I go back home to

118
00:05:32.439 --> 00:05:35.680
Florida and you know, small kind of a small town

119
00:05:35.680 --> 00:05:38.680
in Pensacola, and you know, and that's where I find

120
00:05:38.759 --> 00:05:42.000
Jordan's So it's just kind of crazy how it all happened.

121
00:05:42.879 --> 00:05:45.120
That is pretty cool, And you know, I love your

122
00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:50.800
story because I said after and during COVID that the

123
00:05:50.839 --> 00:05:54.160
blessing of COVID was it would give musicians the chance

124
00:05:54.240 --> 00:05:57.319
to jump off the hamster wheel and actually be able

125
00:05:57.360 --> 00:06:01.160
to create again, because it's got it got so busy

126
00:06:01.240 --> 00:06:04.439
that you never really had a chance to get creative

127
00:06:04.600 --> 00:06:07.839
like you may have when you first started in music.

128
00:06:07.920 --> 00:06:11.519
And it's almost like going back to that when it

129
00:06:11.600 --> 00:06:13.399
was fresh and new and exciting.

130
00:06:14.399 --> 00:06:17.560
Exactly, yeah, exactly, Yeah, there was something about you know

131
00:06:18.600 --> 00:06:21.040
that time, it's like, you know, you couldn't really people

132
00:06:21.079 --> 00:06:22.720
weren't touring, so it's like there was a lot of

133
00:06:22.720 --> 00:06:25.720
people writing and stuff like that, but it was you know,

134
00:06:25.800 --> 00:06:27.759
I think in another way, it was kind of hard

135
00:06:27.759 --> 00:06:29.879
for some people to be inspired because of all the

136
00:06:29.959 --> 00:06:32.240
you know, the madness going on in the world and stuff,

137
00:06:32.279 --> 00:06:34.319
so totally it was almost yeah, it was kind of

138
00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:36.600
a little bit of both. But for me, I this

139
00:06:36.800 --> 00:06:39.439
was kind of a thing that I'd wanted to start

140
00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:41.439
for so many years, so I had all these ideas

141
00:06:41.480 --> 00:06:44.360
saved and I would actually work on demos that became

142
00:06:44.439 --> 00:06:47.199
the first album for Gunshine. While I was on tour

143
00:06:47.279 --> 00:06:48.839
New Year's Day, I would go in the green room

144
00:06:48.879 --> 00:06:51.319
and kind of record stuff. I didn't want to just

145
00:06:51.360 --> 00:06:53.839
wait around until I found all the right pieces, so

146
00:06:53.879 --> 00:06:57.959
I was actively putting things together even before the band started.

147
00:06:58.519 --> 00:06:59.160
I love that.

148
00:06:59.759 --> 00:07:04.240
And so how have you felt the experience has been

149
00:07:04.879 --> 00:07:08.480
with Gunshine? Is it everything that you were thinking it

150
00:07:08.519 --> 00:07:10.000
would be or is it more?

151
00:07:12.040 --> 00:07:15.199
Oh? Man, it's it's been going absolutely killer. You know.

152
00:07:15.439 --> 00:07:17.319
We just played last night, Like I said, to see

153
00:07:17.560 --> 00:07:19.560
people singing the lyrics and stuff back to us.

154
00:07:19.600 --> 00:07:20.800
It's a whole uh.

155
00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:23.639
Crazy wid Yeah, because that's kind of what I always

156
00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:27.360
sort of dreamed of, and I love songwriting, and it's

157
00:07:27.439 --> 00:07:28.920
just it's just really cool too.

158
00:07:29.759 --> 00:07:32.040
You know. The rate that it's gone in just a

159
00:07:32.079 --> 00:07:34.319
few years is super humbling.

160
00:07:34.439 --> 00:07:36.399
So yeah, man, I would say it's going great and

161
00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:38.800
everything everything that I was trying to do, Everything I wanted.

162
00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:41.800
But we're just trying to keep keep raising the bar

163
00:07:41.839 --> 00:07:43.800
and pushing forward even more from here.

164
00:07:44.040 --> 00:07:48.319
So, and speaking of the eighties, what does it feel

165
00:07:48.360 --> 00:07:51.399
like when you get kudos from guys like Joe Elliott

166
00:07:51.480 --> 00:07:52.639
and Steven Piercy.

167
00:07:54.279 --> 00:07:56.959
Yeah, it's another like surreal moment. Man, it's just crazy,

168
00:07:57.079 --> 00:07:59.240
like you grow up on music like that. I always

169
00:07:59.279 --> 00:08:00.920
say I was born in the wrong decades. So I

170
00:08:00.959 --> 00:08:03.480
love you know, def Leppard and and Rat and everything

171
00:08:03.519 --> 00:08:07.480
like that. So you know, it's just it's further I

172
00:08:07.519 --> 00:08:12.600
guess whatever you want to say, validation or or confirmation

173
00:08:12.759 --> 00:08:15.639
or whatever. It is that that yeah, we're on you know,

174
00:08:15.680 --> 00:08:18.600
we're onto something and that that uh, the sound that

175
00:08:18.720 --> 00:08:22.519
was you know, that was kind of circulating for us

176
00:08:22.639 --> 00:08:25.519
is something that resonates with people so and especially guys

177
00:08:25.560 --> 00:08:26.879
like that that you really respect it.

178
00:08:26.879 --> 00:08:27.519
It means a lot.

179
00:08:28.319 --> 00:08:31.519
Yeah, Like for a guy like Joe Elliott to sit

180
00:08:31.600 --> 00:08:34.039
there and say he could just said, oh, it was

181
00:08:34.080 --> 00:08:38.639
good music, but he's like, wow, was I thoroughly entertained

182
00:08:38.639 --> 00:08:42.720
by this record? It's fantastic like those adjectives, let's say

183
00:08:42.759 --> 00:08:43.080
a lot.

184
00:08:43.159 --> 00:08:44.080
And then to.

185
00:08:44.120 --> 00:08:47.879
Compare you to early gin or and maybe even Buck Jerry,

186
00:08:48.399 --> 00:08:49.240
that's pretty wild.

187
00:08:50.279 --> 00:08:51.279
Yeah, I know that.

188
00:08:51.279 --> 00:08:53.960
It's it's crazy like uh, and like I said, those

189
00:08:54.200 --> 00:08:56.679
you know, def Leppard is a big part of the sound,

190
00:08:56.679 --> 00:08:59.200
you know, all the melodies and how Mutt Lang was

191
00:08:59.279 --> 00:09:01.480
kind of producing every everything. He's a big influence for

192
00:09:01.559 --> 00:09:04.840
me as well. So yeah, man, wild it would be

193
00:09:04.879 --> 00:09:06.399
cool if we got a tour with def Leppard at

194
00:09:06.399 --> 00:09:06.799
some point.

195
00:09:07.720 --> 00:09:09.799
There it is you could have maybe you could have

196
00:09:09.919 --> 00:09:13.039
like a tour it would be rat def Leopard and

197
00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:13.600
you guys.

198
00:09:14.039 --> 00:09:15.519
There you go. I'm all about it.

199
00:09:15.840 --> 00:09:18.720
And then you could get Steven and Joe to come

200
00:09:18.799 --> 00:09:21.120
up and perform a song with you guys.

201
00:09:21.559 --> 00:09:25.360
Yeah, oh yeah, right, yeah, we'll speak it into existence.

202
00:09:26.200 --> 00:09:29.159
There you go. So what else you got going on

203
00:09:29.200 --> 00:09:32.039
for the rest of twenty twenty six ap the listeners

204
00:09:32.080 --> 00:09:32.879
have to look out for.

205
00:09:33.679 --> 00:09:35.960
Yeah, we're just busy touring. Man, We're gonna be uh,

206
00:09:36.320 --> 00:09:36.519
you know.

207
00:09:36.519 --> 00:09:38.679
We have the new record, Grand Rising, and we're super

208
00:09:38.679 --> 00:09:39.480
pumped about it.

209
00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:42.919
It's it's it's all over the place in the best

210
00:09:42.960 --> 00:09:43.360
of ways.

211
00:09:43.399 --> 00:09:43.600
You know.

212
00:09:43.639 --> 00:09:46.679
We got a couple of ballads, we have an acoustic song,

213
00:09:46.799 --> 00:09:50.039
we have heavier songs, we have some stuff that kind

214
00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:51.919
of nods back to the first album a little bit.

215
00:09:52.399 --> 00:09:54.919
We had the last song on the records called Table Dancing,

216
00:09:54.960 --> 00:09:57.399
and it's eight minutes long and it's like five songs

217
00:09:57.480 --> 00:09:59.879
in one. There's a there's like a Frank Sinatra section

218
00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:01.639
in a seventies disco section.

219
00:10:01.840 --> 00:10:04.320
So we had a ton of fun making this album.

220
00:10:04.399 --> 00:10:07.120
So the really the thing this year is just we're

221
00:10:07.279 --> 00:10:10.960
sort of touring and getting this album out there nice.

222
00:10:11.080 --> 00:10:14.759
And I love that you have all different types of

223
00:10:15.000 --> 00:10:18.600
kind of lack of a better thing, playing like genres

224
00:10:18.639 --> 00:10:22.639
within your music, because that's what I think makes it

225
00:10:22.679 --> 00:10:25.840
today is the blending of a bunch of I think

226
00:10:26.360 --> 00:10:30.919
metal and rock in general has gotten so like finite

227
00:10:30.960 --> 00:10:34.320
with the subgenres and the micro genres that it's so

228
00:10:34.559 --> 00:10:37.720
refreshing me a band like yours that can just mix

229
00:10:37.759 --> 00:10:40.480
things up and just play whatever you feel instead of

230
00:10:40.519 --> 00:10:45.960
going by some script or some some formula exactly.

231
00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:48.519
That's one of the biggest parts when I started this band,

232
00:10:48.600 --> 00:10:50.519
was like making sure that it was always done that

233
00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:52.639
way and just writing whatever comes out.

234
00:10:52.679 --> 00:10:53.840
And I just love music.

235
00:10:53.960 --> 00:10:57.240
So there's all kinds, you know, like my dad used

236
00:10:57.240 --> 00:10:58.960
to play like a Beach Boys CD in the in

237
00:10:59.000 --> 00:11:01.159
the car or like case in the Sunshine band, and

238
00:11:01.200 --> 00:11:05.159
then you know, we're my sister and I were nineties kids,

239
00:11:05.159 --> 00:11:07.120
so we were hearing some of the pop stuff that

240
00:11:07.200 --> 00:11:08.799
was coming out at the time and just you know,

241
00:11:09.360 --> 00:11:11.600
hard rock and metal and you can blend all that stuff,

242
00:11:11.600 --> 00:11:12.600
and that's what's cool about it.

243
00:11:12.600 --> 00:11:15.039
It's like, to me, I get bored if it's just

244
00:11:15.200 --> 00:11:15.759
one thing.

245
00:11:16.320 --> 00:11:18.759
But it's like what makes it, what makes it cool

246
00:11:18.799 --> 00:11:20.240
for me is like, well, what if we took like,

247
00:11:20.320 --> 00:11:22.919
you know, the edginess of this, but combined it with

248
00:11:22.960 --> 00:11:24.960
the melody of that and then you know, just I

249
00:11:25.000 --> 00:11:26.639
don't know, man, That's that's what makes it fun.

250
00:11:27.440 --> 00:11:29.799
Yeah. I think Olie from bringing in the rites and

251
00:11:29.840 --> 00:11:31.440
said it best when they were giving him a lot

252
00:11:31.480 --> 00:11:34.519
of crap for like doing all different types of music

253
00:11:34.639 --> 00:11:36.720
now and it's like, why do I want to write

254
00:11:36.720 --> 00:11:39.399
the same song over and over again? And I think

255
00:11:39.440 --> 00:11:42.440
about them, like any artist that's been doing for a while,

256
00:11:42.519 --> 00:11:45.960
that would get like drudgery instead of fun if you're

257
00:11:45.960 --> 00:11:49.519
doing the same thing you did all through the years.

258
00:11:49.840 --> 00:11:52.600
Totally totally and it And that's the biggest thing is like,

259
00:11:52.879 --> 00:11:55.399
you know, the first album came out and again it

260
00:11:55.440 --> 00:11:59.039
was it was years of work even before the band started,

261
00:11:59.039 --> 00:12:01.240
so you're talking some of the riffs may have been

262
00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:03.600
from around ten years ago. And then you know, you

263
00:12:03.600 --> 00:12:05.360
grow as a person, you grow as an artist, and

264
00:12:05.360 --> 00:12:07.480
you're inspired by different things as the years go on.

265
00:12:07.639 --> 00:12:10.399
So as we keep putting out more music because of

266
00:12:10.440 --> 00:12:12.840
what we have, that mindset of just writing whatever comes out,

267
00:12:13.039 --> 00:12:14.240
things are gonna sound.

268
00:12:14.000 --> 00:12:15.759
Different, you know. And that's the way I always wanted

269
00:12:15.799 --> 00:12:16.360
to do things.

270
00:12:16.399 --> 00:12:19.559
And you know, as opposed to maybe like an AC DC,

271
00:12:19.720 --> 00:12:22.480
where every album's going to sound similar. They do it

272
00:12:22.519 --> 00:12:24.360
so well. You know, they have their sound and they

273
00:12:24.399 --> 00:12:27.399
do that so so well. But for me, it's like

274
00:12:27.480 --> 00:12:29.320
it's more fun when you kind of keep mixing it

275
00:12:29.440 --> 00:12:31.600
up and and and.

276
00:12:31.559 --> 00:12:33.360
Yeah, like I said, so that's that's what makes it

277
00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:33.840
fun for me.

278
00:12:34.600 --> 00:12:37.000
Yeah, And I mean that's the way I am. Like

279
00:12:37.080 --> 00:12:39.679
if people are described me, they might think I'm like

280
00:12:39.759 --> 00:12:44.919
schizophrenic because so many like different parts of my personality

281
00:12:44.960 --> 00:12:48.759
and likes and stuff like that. And I think that's

282
00:12:48.799 --> 00:12:54.240
what makes it interesting, fun and gives us the great

283
00:12:54.360 --> 00:12:58.480
music because you're being authentic to yourself. So when you're authentic,

284
00:12:59.000 --> 00:13:00.960
we can read that totally.

285
00:13:01.200 --> 00:13:03.080
Yep, one hundred percent. I've always thought that too.

286
00:13:03.120 --> 00:13:05.840
And the audience is smart and they can pick off,

287
00:13:05.960 --> 00:13:08.080
pick up on if you're not being authentic and if

288
00:13:08.120 --> 00:13:10.440
you're if you're just phoning it in or trying to

289
00:13:11.039 --> 00:13:15.080
create a sound, uh, because it's something you think is

290
00:13:15.080 --> 00:13:17.360
gonna sell and all this, you know, it's it's that

291
00:13:17.600 --> 00:13:20.519
just that takes all the all the fun away from it. So,

292
00:13:20.720 --> 00:13:23.159
but if you're having fun and you're creating, and you

293
00:13:23.159 --> 00:13:25.360
know you're laughing while you're writing because something you think

294
00:13:25.440 --> 00:13:27.519
is so good or whatever, you know, whatever it may be.

295
00:13:27.600 --> 00:13:30.279
But if you have that feeling, it's usually other people

296
00:13:30.320 --> 00:13:32.080
resonate to nice.

297
00:13:32.399 --> 00:13:35.240
So tell everybody how they can connect to you, guys

298
00:13:35.279 --> 00:13:38.480
on socials, how they can reach your merch store, because

299
00:13:38.480 --> 00:13:41.159
that's most important to me. They can't listen to my

300
00:13:41.200 --> 00:13:43.080
show unless they buy your merch. It's the only way

301
00:13:43.080 --> 00:13:44.080
you get to the next town.

302
00:13:44.720 --> 00:13:46.440
Yeah, yeah, I appreciate you, man.

303
00:13:46.519 --> 00:13:49.320
So, Uh, Gunshine band dot com is the website and

304
00:13:49.320 --> 00:13:53.159
then if you're typing gunshine across Facebook, Instagram, TikTok YouTube,

305
00:13:53.159 --> 00:13:55.519
you'll find us. But I think it's Gunshine Band on

306
00:13:55.600 --> 00:13:58.679
Instagram as well. So, and you'll find the merch. It's

307
00:13:58.720 --> 00:14:00.360
in the if you go to the webs and just

308
00:14:00.360 --> 00:14:03.080
click merch, you'll find it. Uh, it's in all of

309
00:14:03.120 --> 00:14:05.240
our social media bios. You'll see the link and you

310
00:14:05.320 --> 00:14:07.440
can you can click and find it from there.

311
00:14:08.039 --> 00:14:08.360
Cool.

312
00:14:08.759 --> 00:14:10.960
Any final words you want to leave our listeners with

313
00:14:11.000 --> 00:14:12.679
that we haven't covered already.

314
00:14:13.000 --> 00:14:15.720
Now, Man, just appreciate everyone's support so much, and it's
