"I love playing songs you can just get lost in. Lots of solos and breakdowns, songs that are really alive. You’re in the groove and there’s nothing but that moment, when you’re just up there ripping it with your brothers and then the crowd goes full on electric. It makes my soul happy." - Jordan Applebe
