Toki has released recordings with Talib Kweli\, BJ The Chicago Kid\, and G Yamazawa to name a few.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe biggest lynchpin of deVon Gray’s creative practice is always beginning from a place of\, “I know nothing” when approaching: a new composition\, a performance\, or any creative endeavor. He believes that empty vessels receive new knowledge with greater efficiency. Facts. What are other known knowns about the artist? The composer/improviser is hugely aroused by all things natural. The great outdoors offer him much by way of respite and reflection. He loves eating\, drinking\, and merriment. He’s a moon gazing\, leaf peeping\, steadily-streaming cinephile. In his downtime he consumes and unwillingly participates in a mixed economy same as you. He’s pissed about it. He wants out. In his uptime he makes the good art. And he tent camps as often as possible.InstagramWe Sick on Bandcamp
