RIP Mr PettyOn a long list of influences you are right up there at the top. Seeing you perform for the last time at the Hollywood Bowl last week was like 3 hours of a rock n roll dream come to life. 2017 has taken some of the greatest names on my record shelf and this one hits like a sledgehammer. Thanks for the tunes, the flying lessons and the resilience to never back down; to trust in what comes outta your soul and onto the strings. Few did it better than you! We played wildflower loud last night in NYC…Really fucking loud and then we played all the rest. Big thank you to my friend @ian_healy_art at @saved_tattoo for turning the heartbreak into a reminder of why we make the music we do and why we love it so much. Time to do some flying of my own. #tompetty #rip #heartbreakers #ny #newyork
