Live set of Sweguno material performed at Black Oak Ranch in Laytonville for the 2025 edition of the ambient/downtempo campout festival Chillits. I performed from 2:20 pm - 3:05 pm on Saturday. The a’cappella intro was feeding back a lot (too much delay on my looping pedal) so I cut it short. I live-debuted some new, unreleased tracks, as well as some older tracks, and a new Roberta Flack cover. Audience reaction was great and I sold a few copies of my record prerelease!
