  • Shuffle – Playlist 2 – 4 – Trip the Light Fantastic (Greta Van Fleet)

    The year is 2186, and the sky is always dark. There is evidence of a sun behind the haze that moves through the atmosphere.

    “The first time that I ever traveled to the Congo, specifically the DRC, was in 2008 to cover the violence and refugees who managed to escape to nearby Uganda.
