A dove suddenly fell from the power line.
Another dove fell from the wire.
The sky is cloudy.

The Smoking Trout collaborative's Quest for the Holy Dumpling, episode 7 finds our traveling band of protagonists hitting on some good luck after we left them 'out of food and out of gas' at the end of the last installment of our work-in-progress concept album.

On this one, I came up with a beat and synth score as step 1. Then Jeff added some fantastic vocals and Stephen brought in a killer guitar groove. We always have tons of fun making these, hope you will enjoy listening as well!

Lyrics:

Sally ls a hero, found a hundred dollar bill and a sack of Skittles
ln between the Cushions of the couch-
Sid and MaryAnn are at the local bloodbank
peddling pints of plasma
for fifty bucks a pop-
Maurice and Nostradamus are at the western Union
picking up three hundred dollars
from their grandma ln Tacoma

Gus ls working on the Bus
ln the episcopalian Parklng lot
and even got two hundred dollars from the congregation-
Stu he's got a Visa card which he never uses
Ubered over to the lucky Ladles where he's playing black jack
hoping for a Major Parlay--Hoping for a major Parlay-----

Larry and Roberta, while beggin for some buckshees
and playln muslc on the corner at the farmers market
met a Sufi sitting on the sidewalk
serenely spouting scripture from the 
Transcendental Dharma of the Holy Dumpling

Along with baking soda, salt, wheat and water
A heavy leavening of responsibility ls required ln the making--
and some mushrooms only growing ln Oaxaca
lf you wanna make that dumpling, she sald
you're gonna have to go
To Mexico

A Major Parlay (Smoking Trout's HOLY DUMPLING #7) w/ Stonerjazz & TexMex Shaman

So We Meet is a symphonic journey of opposites — fire against water, danger against serenity. At its heart, though, it’s not just about elements but about people, the clashes and harmonies we carry within.

The music opens with lush cinematic strings and haunting piano motifs, slowly unfolding into a grand, operatic soundscape. Ethereal choirs rise like waves, while ambient guitars and shimmering synths weave around them. Drums strike with purpose, building momentum toward a towering climax — where passion, fear, and resilience collide in a storm of sound.

Epic yet intimate, So We Meet is both a duel and a dance — reminding us that in every confrontation lies the chance for balance, and in every struggle, a reflection of ourselves.
