Eli Tostado and I started on talking about relationships but we inevitably started talking about music business, the local music scene, and being a professional in this industry. You can find her on most social media @flowerboi_94 and her band @bedtimetheband

Eli Tostado is a singer, songwriter, and artist. She and I go way back… like elementary school. Anyways, we talked about music, of course, performing, spirituality, and politics, as usual.

Adam Marquez is back and we talked about music, memes, how the further fragmentation of niche subgroups creates ridiculous ideas, and how inherent traits in systems create emergent properties as a system progresses. Those are certainly all words. He doesn’t really have his own stuff to promote quite yet, but you can support some of the bands he’s played with (or you can be a creep and find him on Facebook, I guess) :Rozlyn ZoraThe So Help Me’sPluto Rest in Peace
