If, like us, you grew up listening to Incubus (@incubusTV), you might be stoked to find out that lead singer Brandon Boyd (@brandonboydofficial) is a psychedelic advocate. Recently, Shylah Ray (@shylahray) sat down with him to discuss his journey to discovering mushrooms, his first ayahuasca experience, his creative process, his spiritual path, and much more. It was an incredibly inspiring conversation.

This is the inaugural interview in DoubleBlind's new and improved Medicine Music series, in partnership with PORTAL, a psychedelic advocacy project started by Propeller. In this series, we explore the relationship between plant medicines, creativity, personal growth, and mysticism with our favorite artists.
