Here is the first track I ever wrote for someone who passed away.

The first time I met Iaian's mom she gave me a hug and a kiss in her kitchen! A total stranger, and it honestly floored me. I think about that moment often.

Iaian made this collage in her memory. His description is below:

"Here's a collage that makes me smile. First of all its dedicated to mi madre. A woman so fantastic that she taught me all the swears in Spanish when I was little. We were sitting in the back of the car and Shawn and Juan were in the front, one long car ride. It's called EL BRILLIANTE CAFE in loving memory of the cafe my mother would take Shawn and I to for lunch (always the Bocata de Calamares) when we would go to the Reina Sofia. I remember saying this as a kid, in Spanish, and my mother and my Tia Sol laughing hysterically."
