This excerpt from 'The Blue Pearl' off of my upcoming album, starts with a simple bluesy guitar solo which I played through my Fargen Duo Tone - to get this sound I amped the guitar so loud that I it rattled all the light fixtures on the ceiling, which added to the thick dirty tone. 
This track is a pirate pop song about how finding the treasure of self realization parallels the journey of insight that both our individual selves, and our small shining blue planet, are one being - interdependent and interconnected. 
"We are all a point of blue,
you are me, 
and I am you."

Excerpt from The Blue Pearl - DFT M4L - 08

Hey, I'm Eight Two (they/them)—a nonbinary, queer, neurodivergent genre fluid singer-songwriter and self-taught visual artist carving out my own space in the world of art rock. My journey began in the vibrant streets of Brooklyn in 2008, where I found solace and inspiration in the power of music.

As a multi-instrumentalist, my primary tools are the guitar and my voice, weaving together melodies that speak to the soul. From thought-provoking philosophical musings to uplifting motivational anthems, my songs are a reflection of my quest for creativity, connection, and meaning.

Despite navigating the world without social media or a phone, I'm here to share my sonic journey with you. Whether you're a fellow oddball, a seeker of truth, or simply someone looking for a bit of inspiration, there's a place for you in my musical universe.

So join me on this adventure as I craft my next album, fueled by authenticity, vulnerability, and a whole lot of heart. Together, let's explore the depths of our creativity, forge meaningful connections, and celebrate the beauty of being unapologetically ourselves.
