**Still on an unexpected hiatus but new episodes will be back very soon! This week, let’s revisit one of my favorite episodes w/ one of the most underrated musicians out there!**
On this episode of Songs of Our Lives, it’s Tomin! This one feels full circle. Ever since learning about Tomin’s music nearly four years ago, I’ve felt a special connection to it. It’s been hard to explain, but after seeing his picks for this episode and talking to him about them, it makes a lot more sense. His latest record, “A Willed and Conscious Balance,” is out now International Anthem and is such a special listen. We talk about that, his cheat code of a band, and plenty more before diving into TLC’s eye-opening impact, the all-time greatness of jaimie branch, the absurdly underappreciated Marvin Hannibal Peterson, living in the same timeline as Alice Coltrane, transcending with Ballake Sissiko, Charles Mingus, James Brandon Lewis, John Coltrane, and loads more!
