East Forest is a multidisciplinary artist, producer, and ceremony guide known for his genre-blending music combining ambient, neoclassical, avant-pop, and electronic sounds. 

East Forest and Anthony discuss the integral role of music in the human experience, particularly in the context of psychedelic-assisted therapy and its potential for healing and emotional processing.

Since 2008, his work has focused on using sound as a tool for inner journeys and consciousness expansion. In addition to his music, East Forest offers guided meditations, retreats, and a podcast, Ten Laws w/East Forest, where he explores accessible spirituality and inner resilience.
