About the band:

This is a picture of my friend John and myself (I'm Jason. That's John on the left). We've been friends for quite a while now. We've both been playing music since we were teenagers. 

A couple of years ago, we decided to sit down together and try to write some songs. Songs that we would record and possibly perform together with other musicians. Songs that were coming from our perspectives at this point in our lives. We're aren't teenagers anymore. We aren't in our 20s anymore either. We have lived some life and had some experiences but we don't necessarily feel ancient. And we wanted to write from that place, taking our time to make music that felt good to us. Working on lyrics... sometimes just getting a line or two and then meeting up again in a few days or a week to work some more until we could look at each other without laughing and say "yep, write that down, that's good". Then we got together with friends and recorded some of these songs. We're proud of the way they turned out and now it's time to put them out into the world. 

We needed a name. When our musical minds were being shaped and formed, the world was a little bit different. Communication was different. There wasn't email. There wasn't YouTube. People wrote letters, people listened to the radio. That's not to say that things today are worse or that those years were better. It's just true. Two Southern California natives growing up with all kinds of influences, musical and other wise. So here is the first listen to what we've worked so long and hard at. This is Letters and Radio. Thanks for listening!

LYRICS:
I’ve lived it pretty good to date
would I make the same mistakes? oh i would
everything would stay the same
wouldn’t change a thing if I could
no regrets. lets live that way
its the only path that I walk
authenticity calls, where have you gone?

authenticity is killing us all
and how your running decides, how you fall
authenticity is kill us all
maybe tomorrow ill be gone

I see my fakers, my zombies
my walking dead they’re bankers
catch em fall for the lust of the dollar
we’ll set a fire, lets light some thought on what is higher
i got so much more that I desire

authenticity is killing us all
what will the money do for your poor soul
authenticity is kill us all
maybe tomorrow ill be gone

there’s no time to waste
bout to shake it up like theres a quake
for brighter days, but right now were stuck in a darker age
there’s harder ways
don’t get me wrong, we all need the love

authenticity is killing us all
and how your running decides, how you fall
authenticity is kill us all
maybe tomorrow ill be gone
authenticity is killing us all
what will the money do for your poor soul
authenticity is kill us all
maybe tomorrow ill be gone

EMAW. Philippians 4:6-7. EMAW track to help with memorizing this verse... because i'm not good with the memorizing of things unless there's music involved. So this is for me, but if it helps anyone else on the EMAW or just for whatever, then great! Drop me a line to let me know.
