Me and Julio // Paul Simon // POMPLAMOOSE ft. Lawrence

If you don’t know the band @lawrencetheband, you must go listen to them NOW. I’m just so glad that we were able to do something together while they were on the West Coast. And to get to do this CLASSIC PAUL SIMON song too. It was…heaven. But like a surprisingly difficult heaven, where you wish you’d been able to rehearse your part more but whatever it’s fine.
