feeling and then you let me in the

00:00:44.840 --> 00:00:52.159

So we let go the Gusla.
This is the pipe Man here on

the Adventures pipe Man W four C
y Radio and I'm here with her next

9
00:01:00.240 --> 00:01:07.480
guest that has some badass music,
but also again dig what the whole vibe

10
00:01:07.599 --> 00:01:11.560
is about the new song. So
let's welcome to the show Lines of Loyalty.

11
00:01:11.640 --> 00:01:14.480
How are you good man? Thanks
for having us man, Hey,

12
00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:18.760
my pleasure. So tell us about
this new song. First of all,

13
00:01:18.799 --> 00:01:23.359
from you as the artist. Funny
story is that this was one of the

14
00:01:23.400 --> 00:01:27.480
last songs recorded for the record,
so the record didn't have a name,

15
00:01:29.400 --> 00:01:32.719
but this was one of the last
songs recorded, and obviously it was the

16
00:01:32.799 --> 00:01:37.480
last single on the record, but
it was written not to be called that.

17
00:01:37.920 --> 00:01:42.239
It was It was written just as
like an experience of just how we

18
00:01:42.280 --> 00:01:46.959
all feel to be human, and
the tagline was the last thing to be

19
00:01:47.000 --> 00:01:49.920
written. The Hurst to Be Human
line was the last thing to be written.

20
00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:53.040
And basically I had it in my
notes when I was writing a song.

21
00:01:53.040 --> 00:01:56.799
I had in my notes Hurst to
Be Human, and I brought it

22
00:01:56.799 --> 00:02:00.519
to my buddy Ricky and I showed
it to him and he was like,

23
00:02:00.599 --> 00:02:02.519
man, I like that a lot. So then that just stuck to be

24
00:02:02.599 --> 00:02:07.560
to the tagline. And just I
just think it relates with everyone in the

25
00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:09.639
band so much, and I think
it relates with all the fans a lot.

26
00:02:09.680 --> 00:02:13.400
When we're on the road and stuff. People can really relate to that.

27
00:02:13.479 --> 00:02:17.439
And I feel like it it really
hit the mark Man when we did

28
00:02:17.439 --> 00:02:23.800
it, So yeah, I gotta
tell you that I think it hits the

29
00:02:23.800 --> 00:02:27.800
mark with just about every human walking
the face of the earth right now.

30
00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:31.400
Yeah, you know, because it's
funny. You know, there's so much

31
00:02:31.439 --> 00:02:37.639
going on and it's just spreading everywhere. Not so funny, but you go

32
00:02:37.759 --> 00:02:42.800
other places and it's like you think
you may be escaping certain things and it's

33
00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:46.080
the same problem, just different place. And of course I think we just

34
00:02:46.159 --> 00:02:51.560
all need to be one people and
like learn to love each other. Well,

35
00:02:52.240 --> 00:02:54.520
that's a big thing too. It's
like when we write songs, we

36
00:02:54.599 --> 00:02:58.560
want to write it to make it
feel like you're not alone, you know

37
00:02:58.639 --> 00:03:00.319
what I mean? And like that. That's why I listen to music,

38
00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:05.240
and that's why I write music,
is to make people feel like they belong

39
00:03:05.400 --> 00:03:07.319
or hey, you're not alone in
this heartbreak or the addiction. You're not

40
00:03:07.400 --> 00:03:10.520
alone in this. There are other
people that are going through it too.

41
00:03:10.680 --> 00:03:14.560
So for sure, man, I
totally, I totally believe that too.

42
00:03:14.639 --> 00:03:17.319
Man, that we shall just kind
of come together and just be one big

43
00:03:17.680 --> 00:03:21.639
you know, human race, you
know, no doubt, And that is

44
00:03:21.680 --> 00:03:24.159
what music does for us. That's
that's why I think it's cool. And

45
00:03:24.199 --> 00:03:29.319
there's like sometimes people say out there, oh, if you're in music,

46
00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:34.319
you shouldn't be talking about certain subjects. I disagree with that. I think

47
00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:38.039
the music is what brings us all
together. Of course, music is the

48
00:03:38.080 --> 00:03:43.400
best therapy, and I think we
need it more than ever now. To

49
00:03:43.479 --> 00:03:46.120
me in my lifetime, I think
we need it more than ever. Well,

50
00:03:46.240 --> 00:03:50.319
I think music is therapy to a
lot of people. And I think

51
00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:55.039
that and I think that people I
think people overlook music a lot and the

52
00:03:55.120 --> 00:03:59.919
powers of it, and at least
in my life obviously being a musician,

53
00:04:00.199 --> 00:04:02.039
but just being a music lover dude, Like, music's changed my life.

54
00:04:02.319 --> 00:04:06.639
It affects my moods, it just
every day. It's just something you know,

55
00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:11.000
most people do is listen to music. I think it's an underrated part

56
00:04:11.039 --> 00:04:14.639
of people's lives that they don't really
understand that really helps people. So,

57
00:04:14.879 --> 00:04:17.680
like, obviously therapy is a lot
of money, but music is, you

58
00:04:17.720 --> 00:04:21.560
know, music's therapy, man,
and it works for me. And I

59
00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:25.079
hope that you know, songs like
Hurts to be Human and stuff like that

60
00:04:25.079 --> 00:04:28.639
can really help people through some hard
times. Well, what's cool about a

61
00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:30.319
song like this too? Is okay, So that's why I ask you in

62
00:04:30.360 --> 00:04:34.959
the beginning what it means to you? Yeah, but that doesn't it's not

63
00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:39.040
always the same as what it means
to the person listening to it. But

64
00:04:39.560 --> 00:04:44.120
a great song like this is always
the type of song where everybody can put

65
00:04:44.120 --> 00:04:48.160
their own meaning to it. Yeah, and you're still unified exactly exactly.

66
00:04:48.399 --> 00:04:54.360
It's you're so right where a good
song can mean multiple things other people,

67
00:04:54.360 --> 00:04:57.079
where they can take it about a
heartbreak, they can take about losing a

68
00:04:57.079 --> 00:04:59.800
loved one, they can take it
about addiction, they can take it multiple

69
00:04:59.800 --> 00:05:03.959
ways. That's awesome when people do
that, Yeah, because the bottom line

70
00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:09.720
is we're all going through things,
good, bad and different. Sometimes they're

71
00:05:09.720 --> 00:05:14.240
different things, sometimes they're similar,
but we also always have our own perspective.

72
00:05:14.279 --> 00:05:17.839
And I think when you go to
a concert or a festival and you

73
00:05:17.879 --> 00:05:23.560
see all those people out there,
they're singing the lyrics to these songs,

74
00:05:24.560 --> 00:05:28.879
and for each one of those people, that could be hitting a different nerve

75
00:05:29.040 --> 00:05:33.000
or different part at our heart or
or what have you, or your plane

76
00:05:33.160 --> 00:05:39.120
or anything, but it's hitting everybody
the same. And that's and that's the

77
00:05:39.160 --> 00:05:41.920
thing too. Man. It's just
you never know what's going on in someone's

78
00:05:41.959 --> 00:05:43.839
head, you know what I mean. And I always try to be as

79
00:05:43.920 --> 00:05:46.519
kind as I can to everybody because
you never know what someone else is going

80
00:05:46.600 --> 00:05:50.720
through. And obviously you you know, and same with you know, just

81
00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:56.360
in the mind. Man, it's
crazy. It's just crazy that the amount

82
00:05:56.399 --> 00:06:00.000
of stuff that people hide and people
you know, kind of tucked back,

83
00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:03.360
you know what I mean. So
hopefully you know, listen to songs and

84
00:06:03.480 --> 00:06:06.439
listen to music, man can help
a lot of people. So what was

85
00:06:06.480 --> 00:06:12.480
that one moment in life for you
where maybe it was a song that hit

86
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:15.879
you, maybe it was a band
that hit you, or just an instrument

87
00:06:15.959 --> 00:06:20.959
that hit you that made you realize
that this is like just part of your

88
00:06:21.040 --> 00:06:26.920
life now. My dad is a
bass player as well, so at a

89
00:06:26.959 --> 00:06:30.279
young age I picked it up and
wanted to be, you know, just

90
00:06:30.360 --> 00:06:33.279
like him and stuff like that,
and it kind of just it kind of

91
00:06:33.279 --> 00:06:36.279
became a way of life for me. Man. It you know, just

92
00:06:36.319 --> 00:06:42.800
through high school and just from my
twenties, just you know, the grind

93
00:06:42.920 --> 00:06:45.600
going through it, but it just
became a way of life, man.

94
00:06:45.639 --> 00:06:48.920
And music is something that you know, I just can't walk away from now.

95
00:06:48.920 --> 00:06:54.079
Man, it's been a grind for
the past eleven twelve years now,

96
00:06:54.160 --> 00:06:59.240
so it's been it's been something since
a very young age from my father playing

97
00:06:59.319 --> 00:07:05.800
music. So what do you think
is one story good, bad, crazy,

98
00:07:05.839 --> 00:07:12.279
wild, not crazy whatever that really
stands in your mind of this whole

99
00:07:12.399 --> 00:07:17.439
journey that you've been on in music. Man, I guess I would just

100
00:07:17.480 --> 00:07:23.720
say those those three legs of Static
and seven Dusts that we did a few

101
00:07:23.720 --> 00:07:27.279
months back, Dude, I just
just you know, play into a couple

102
00:07:27.360 --> 00:07:30.639
thousand people a night, dude.
I mean it was a it was a

103
00:07:30.680 --> 00:07:32.560
life changing and a very humbling moment, dude. And it was a very

104
00:07:32.680 --> 00:07:36.519
just like you know, it's working
kind of thing, man. So,

105
00:07:36.720 --> 00:07:41.519
I mean, the past year has
been a very a very good time for

106
00:07:41.639 --> 00:07:46.040
our band, and it's been it's
been a lot of hard work and obviously

107
00:07:46.079 --> 00:07:49.399
it's there's no insta gratification, you
know, ever when it comes to music,

108
00:07:49.439 --> 00:07:51.959
you know, I mean unless you
get a vital song or you know,

109
00:07:53.000 --> 00:07:56.360
a big TikTok thing or something like
that. But like, I think

110
00:07:56.480 --> 00:08:00.680
just the past year, all the
tours and all the fans and all just

111
00:08:00.680 --> 00:08:03.360
just all the interactions and talking to
people and seeing how much you know,

112
00:08:03.399 --> 00:08:07.040
our music has touched on people.
Man. It. I think that's been

113
00:08:07.600 --> 00:08:11.680
a really big thing for me.
So does it blow your mind when you're

114
00:08:11.720 --> 00:08:16.680
going on tour with bands like that
and you think that the crowd's there for

115
00:08:16.720 --> 00:08:18.959
them, and then you see them
singing your songs and fine, oh man,

116
00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:22.839
that's you know, that's a you
know, a very surreal moment man,

117
00:08:22.879 --> 00:08:26.480
And like, you know, you
go back to the merch table and

118
00:08:26.519 --> 00:08:28.279
you know what I mean, they're
saying I saw you here, I saw

119
00:08:28.319 --> 00:08:31.080
you here, and just all that
kind of stuff. Man. And we

120
00:08:31.120 --> 00:08:35.200
have a fan page where where people
share a bunch of heartfelt stuff and it's

121
00:08:35.279 --> 00:08:39.960
it's awesome. Man. It makes
you know, doing music it's so hard

122
00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:43.639
and obviously you you got sacrifice a
lot, but just seeing those things just

123
00:08:43.759 --> 00:08:46.639
all make it worth it. So
yeah, that's what I was gonna say,

124
00:08:46.679 --> 00:08:50.279
Like, when you have those experiences, it just makes you realize like,

125
00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:54.799
yes, this is really what I'm
destined to do exactly. And it's

126
00:08:54.639 --> 00:09:00.919
it's hard because a lot of people
don't understand the real sacrifice of music.

127
00:09:01.120 --> 00:09:05.440
And it's a hard thing. You
know. It's you know, there's not

128
00:09:05.559 --> 00:09:09.360
much money in it yet and there's
you know a lot of just grind,

129
00:09:09.440 --> 00:09:11.440
a lot of struggle, and you
know, people don't understand, you know

130
00:09:11.480 --> 00:09:13.799
what I mean, it's, oh, go get a real job, go

131
00:09:13.879 --> 00:09:18.879
do this and stuff like that.
It's it's just hard because it's just it's

132
00:09:18.919 --> 00:09:22.799
like being a professional athlete. It's
like, you know, good luck,

133
00:09:22.879 --> 00:09:24.399
you know what I'm saying. But
someone has to do it, man,

134
00:09:24.440 --> 00:09:26.759
And it's it's a way of life
for me, and it's a way of

135
00:09:26.840 --> 00:09:30.679
life for the band, and you
know, we're not going to stop until

136
00:09:30.679 --> 00:09:33.159
we uh, until we hit that
point that we you know, it's our

137
00:09:33.200 --> 00:09:37.360
life, it's our living. So
I love it and I love how you

138
00:09:37.399 --> 00:09:41.840
put that because I say all the
time, you know, musicians, they

139
00:09:41.960 --> 00:09:46.000
work super hard, like when people
tell you get a real job, Like

140
00:09:46.240 --> 00:09:50.360
those people telling you that don't work
even a half as hard as a musician,

141
00:09:50.799 --> 00:09:54.200
for sure, and maybe they should
walk in your shoes for even like

142
00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:58.639
an hour maybe, yeah, sure. And so it is dedication. I

143
00:09:58.679 --> 00:10:03.519
find. The one thing about being
a musician is it's pure dedication and love

144
00:10:03.559 --> 00:10:09.639
and passion for the music, because
otherwise you would never make it. Yeah.

145
00:10:09.759 --> 00:10:15.039
Yes, it's because you have to
love it because everything you have to

146
00:10:15.080 --> 00:10:18.279
put into it, you put everything
heart and soul into it, and that's

147
00:10:18.440 --> 00:10:22.840
what makes great a great song too. Oh agree. And obviously if you

148
00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:26.080
do it for the money, it's
just the wrong reasons. If you do

149
00:10:26.120 --> 00:10:28.399
it for the fame, you know, I think that's for the wrong reasons

150
00:10:28.399 --> 00:10:30.879
too. Man. It's just obviously
that stuff comes with it. But you

151
00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:33.600
got to do it for the love
of the music and do it for yourself,

152
00:10:33.039 --> 00:10:37.120
you know first, and then all
that stuff hopefully should come. But

153
00:10:37.120 --> 00:10:39.879
but yeah, man, it just
being in the band is a lot harder

154
00:10:39.919 --> 00:10:45.519
than I think people think. And
just those little battles of just people coming

155
00:10:45.600 --> 00:10:48.679
and wanting pictures and wanting signatures on
a on a vinyl or a CD or

156
00:10:50.080 --> 00:10:52.080
just stuff like that, or just
coming to our headlining shows whatever. Just

157
00:10:52.120 --> 00:10:54.840
coming to our show is just means
so much to us to make us feel

158
00:10:54.879 --> 00:11:01.399
like we're doing something right because doing
this is very it's very it's very taxing

159
00:11:01.440 --> 00:11:03.840
and it's very just like it's such
an uphill battle that you you got to

160
00:11:03.879 --> 00:11:09.039
take those little wins and just back
them up. Man. So well,

161
00:11:09.559 --> 00:11:15.200
you're definitely taking some wins with this
music you have now. And uh,

162
00:11:15.480 --> 00:11:18.840

amazing, And uh, tell everybody how
