Eric Ahlteen is an old pal since I moved to Ohio 13 years ago and found my way to Espresso Yourself Music Cafe, where life long friendships were formed.

Dre Peace cozied up in my new studio and we chatted about the creative process, speaking truths in power, life threatening illness, and juicing (the healthy kind).
