Forgiven You Merch: A Guitar Pick That Plays Back
Some mail days are better than others. On September 30, 2026, a package showed up from the band Forgiven You: a band t-shirt, a stack of stickers, and a custom guitar pick. The band was founded by Jacob, who I've jammed with, and this merch is just plain cool. This band rocks! 🤘
A pick that plays back
Here's the part I love. The pick isn't only for strumming. Scan the QR code with your phone and it opens Forgiven You's artist page on Spotify. Give it to a fan after a show, and they walk away with something to play guitar with and a direct line to the band's music. It's a business card you can actually shred with.
As a guitar player, that hits home. A pick lives in your pocket, your case, your car's cup holder. It sticks around long after a flyer gets tossed.

Here's Jacob and me trading riffs:
