• the warmup song • around one year ago I got the chance to meet and share the stage with one of my biggest guitar heroes - John Petrucci. These last two days were beyond special to me because I got the chance to spend some time with the master wizard of keys, Jordan Rudess (@jcrudess). He flew all the way from Japan to Vegas to watch Silk Sonic - and was kind enough to jam with me for an entire afternoon. We were talking about hybrid picking & I showed him this exercise I do all the time, which ended up becoming this piece of music we wrote. Sharing our mutual passion was an unforgettable experience to me. Thanks, Jordan. You’re very special & easily one of the most impressive and talented musicians I’ve ever met. Words won’t be able to explain how much inspiration you brought to me. 🧠🫀🫂
