Recorded in Elizaville, NY - September 2020

We drove upstate in the early fall of 2020 to record ideas we had played live for a year or so. There's a kind of tired peace in the photos from that week. We'd been in survival mode for so long and had each experienced an endless ocean of tragedies, changes, and self-revaluations. Being together safely felt like a deep breath. It made a little bit of life apart from space and time, and the music reflects the thoughts we were having, I think. Revolution - outward, inward. Introspection. Growth. Trust. Change. Patience. Love. Heavy and clear like water.

When it came time to mix, Andrew Sarlo connected us to the wonderful Melina Duterte, also known as Jay Som, an artist we look up to and admire so much. With Melina, it was pretty apparent that in her, we'd found a richness of sound and an understanding of storytelling that was immediate and brilliant. It's truly a privilege to work with her. We couldn't believe our luck, and it's a joy to make and share music with you all.
