"The Vanilla Gorilla x Kill Tony"

​​

Tribute for  "The vanilla gorilla" aka William F Montgomery. | Austin, Texas, USA 2025​​

​

This project was special. What started as a custom sculpture for one of my favorite comedians, William Montgomery, turned into an cool experience. 

The journey led to me and my comedian son, @vidar_lunde, hanging out with the core crew of Kill Tony (the biggest live podcast on the planet) at Joe Rogan’s club, The Comedy Mothership in Austin. ...Best of all, it resulted in a brand-new (one-sided) friendship with William himself.

​

Photos feature: The sculpture shot on an Austin rooftop, followed by a moment from inside Mitzi's Bar.
