CALIFORNIA: Martin “Caleb Camus” Ballard has spent a lifetime working as a professional writer, musician and visual artist. A resident of Los Felix, these he spends most of his time in his home studio, where he makes music and art, weaving together a blend of cerebral and oftentimes dark lyrics, with atavistic guitar stylings and archival film footage.
A practicing Buddhist, reformed alcoholic and nascent podcaster, the multi-modal artist has recently released a rash of vintage film-driven music videos to critical acclaim, including “Wolves in the Woods,” a toe tapper currently trending on Marijuana Channel One.
In this exclusive video, host David Rheins sits down with his longtime friend for a robust exploration of the intersection of art, music, cannabis and the cosmic giggle.
Introduced to marijuana during his 1970s boyhood in Kentucky, Caleb explains how legal cannabis has helped him kick his lifelong foe — demon alcohol, as well as deal with his ADHD. He goes onto describe how the magic of marijuana has unlocked avenues of creativity and discover a new way of playing and teaching guitar — guitar yoga.
