www.mikegarrigan.com - In this episode, I trace a line from hearing Nevermind for the first time in 1991 to writing an original song inspired by its raw power and dynamic contrasts. Moving through memory, music history, and the nuts and bolts of recording, I explore how Nirvana’s quiet-loud architecture shaped not just a sound, but a way of seeing. The song “Diamonds in the Sky” becomes a vehicle for non-dual spirituality, integral consciousness, and creative surrender. Along the way, I confront artistic fear, questions of originality, and the inner voices that threaten the work before it can breathe.
