Raising Money w/ a String Version of "Temple"

Available today only on BANDCAMP.ORG

Hello all! Wanted to send a quick note in case you were interested. We’ve made a never-before released version of Temple available for today only at Bandcamp.

All proceeds will go to Nakasec VA (https://nakasec.org/va) an Asian American rights organization based in Annandale, Virginia, just a few miles from where I was born and raised. This stringed rendition of Temple was arranged by my brilliant friend and colleague Alex Guy (Led to Sea) and recorded remotely in the Fall of 2020. This take on the song is an extension of and elaboration on my NPR Tiny Desk Concert in July of 2020.
