Met this dude a year or two ago in the bay area. Posted a story about him in one thread recently and figured I'd share his music with you guys. Banned in SAV is my favorite album of his. Hope you all enjoy!

yea hence his album "bannaed in sav" he was actually banned for a year. they have a permit thing you have to get and theyre jackasses about it. the cops even get on you if your just trying to play in public assuming your busking. fucked up old town type policies goin on round those parts. cops were kinda fucked up hence my getting hemmed up but theyve been trying to clean up the police force.
