With another month comes another mixtape, this time round lovingly put together by Cameron Knowler and Eli Winter, two utterly brilliant guitarists with the nimblest of fingers. A winter tour in 2018 through the desert on the Texas-Mexico border ignited their friendship and musical bond, ushering in a new season of possibilities. A beautiful and delightful collection of jams titled Anticipation followed, where the two guitars complement and converse fluidly with one another, as if the two musicians had always been playing together. We've asked them to give us a peek at the artists and sounds that have inspired them and Cameron picked the first ten tracks with Eli taking over after that. Enjoy!
