This EP, and by extension, this band, is a group effort. Without naming names, it would be fair to say that numerous other bands have subsisted on the work of one frontman or composer. When we formed at the end of 2014, it was pretty clear from the get-go that no one member would carry the group, that everyone would take turns in the spotlight. One lineup change, a few recording sessions, and nearly two years later, the group effort mentality is still going strong, and that's what is presented throughout this set. The other four members gladly take turns sharing the singing and songwriting duties, with me bringing up the rear and adding some instrumental work here and there.

I think all of us are a little unsure of what to call this music, with terms like "folk," "bluegrass," "newgrass," "country," "indie," and "Americana" getting thrown around, but we've made no secret of the fact that none of us are purists as far as this music is concerned. The emphasis, at least for me, has always been on the songs, and here we set out to give them the appropriate -- albeit acoustic -- treatment that we thought they deserved.

Thanks to Jordan and Julio and everyone else involved for helping to bring this into existence.
