About The Flying Tortoise Orchestra

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I was 4 years old. My neighbor was Kevin Duren, who was 1 or 2 years older, he had a guitar and wanted to put on a show. I put together a drum kit made out of pots and pans, buckets, toy xylophone, and trash can lids, and we rocked! What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Bodies, Different Beasts Mesembryanthemum, The Dome Trio, We Drew Lightning, The Three Trios: The Storm Approaches Natalie Farr, Telephone Sketch Trickster Trickster by Lapcat is on Apple Music, but Apple wouldn't let me choose it, so I chose another one of mine: Different Beasts. About to Choke, by Vic Chesnutt isn't either, though it's the best album ever made. Natalie Farr is the best. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “The Scarred (feat. Roland Ostheim & Ben Montgomery)” I had the lyrics in my head for 15 years. It sounded like Built to Spill. After my friend, whom it was about, died, while I was avoiding him, knowing he was in a rough patch, after he was there for me so many times in my darkest hours, I finished it.
