WhorlWood made our debut at Hillick & Hobbs Estate Winery back in the spring of 2025. I captured the performance with a basic live recording of the core trio including Michael George Gonzalez (guitar + vocals) with Perry Cleaveland (mandolin) and Doug Henrie (upright bass). This is an original tune called “Belong”. I took the live audio and made a new lyric video:
