This Is What I Saw is a drawing born of pen and ink — intended for you, the listener. At first glance it appears as it is… It’s a drawing of 100 songs. But as it evolved,Me, Pete and the few folks who’ve seen it have felt something more profound taking shape. For me and Pete Nogas (@psychodelicpete), who actually drew this bad boy, it’s an unspoken connection.YES i know that sounds California Rainbow - bare with me. Pete and I met on Instagram and fell into a fast friendship — but we have we’ve never met face to face. We found each other through the strange and beautiful process of creative “bleshing” — two imaginations ping-ponging back and forth. Far out, right? This drawing is equal parts music, marvel, mischief, and moments made indelible — a visual map of 100 songs laden with stories, captured in a 24″ × 36″ behemoth by the ink of good intention. At its core, it’s the sound of friendship made visible. It’s my hope that you hear it ringing long, loud, and proud. - Be good to each other - Reid Genauer
