Initially, this was a road trip theme but I decided to make it a character portrait for my "Shards of Earth" project.  Kris is  a legal expert and crew member on the Vulture God, she's also something of a femme fatale.  
The acoustic guitar is a Takamine and the lead guitar is a Duesenberg Paloma.

“Crashing Into Calm” is about the journey from tension to release, showing how true serenity comes not by control but by accepting what unfolds. It embodies the idea that calm arises when we stop resisting and let things be.
