They were joined at BeachLife Ranch by good friends The Avett Brothers on “Kids” by MGMT and “I Shall Be Released” by the Band, Bahamas on “Breakdown” and “Whole Wide World”, Donavon Frankenreiter on “Heading Home” and “Mudfootball”, as well as Peff Eick, the man who taught Jack his first guitar chords, on “Pirate Looks at Forty” by Jimmy Buffet. At Oceans Calling, special guest Michael Franti and Karl Denson joined for a mashup of Michael Franti’s “Say Hey (I Love You)” into Bob Marley & The Wailers “Soul Shakedown Party” and Slightly Stupid joined for Tom Petty’s “You Don’t Know How It Feels”.
