File this under things I didn’t expect to see today.

I only saw this because EJ himself shared it on Facebook.

Also, this has me go back to AVM, and while Cliffs of Dover is the “trademark” EJ moment, Trademark is a similarly awesome instrumental track from that same album.

Can’t say that I know anything about his music or guitar capabilities, more that it’s cool to see someone with that sort of platform covering Eric Johnson.

From what I know, Austin Post first played guitar in some metal band, before moving to hiphop.
Recently, he and some other guys did a crowdfunding thing for Covid, where they played an hour's worth of (mostly obscure) Nirvana songs. Post Malone handled the vocals and guitar (and quite impressively so!). He's not a fake at all.

I've heard about Post's musical origins and this is really cool honestly. I don't like his music but he seems like a super cool guy. He was just on Joe Rogan's show, and he seems really, super chill.
From a Mega Man Legends island jamming power metal to a Walrus listening to black metal, I like your story arc.

Pre Malone.

I am pleasantly surprised he's into Eric.

he grew up in Texas, so go figure he may know about Eric Johnson.

I've got so much respect for Post. I love that dude.

He recently played a couple country songs for a Texas benefit show. Even if you aren't a country fan, it's worth checking out.

I just dont get who he is and why I should care?  he seems to bemostly hype   .. I had to leave a hot date after the date because she was more into him than Aero during an MTV awards show   ...I picked up my keys and left at 3am,  ..onward... nobody slags Aero... but it was worth it : )
