Description This album is something we've wanted to make for the past five years, but funny enough, it only took us three weeks to complete. Planning for this project came about rather serendipitously, when Dani and Alex met James Petralli following a White Denim concert in September. By April, we had taken up residence at his home studio in Pasadena, sharing beds and sleeping on sofas in the control room. We didn't see much more than the four walls of the studio, save for the three blocks that surrounded, the two coffee houses within walking distance and the single sandwich shop around the corner. Like many of our favorite albums, this effort captures a very specific moment in time. For us, that means the amalgamation of experiences from four friends who have lived in the same house together through the pandemic, and shared in the same van rides for nearly three hundred days touring on the road. To us this album feels like a step towards maturity, as it sees the acceptance and departure from our 20's (for most of us). Alex, our drummer and lone holdover at 27 years-old, was ushered into the lead vocalist role for the entire record. This was entirely by design during the songwriting process. Being a band born out of a music scene that emphasizes the live rendition, we chose to go against tradition and record music that had never been performed before. There was a sense of freedom in the writing process, that we didn't have to imitate anything we had done before. Instead we felt encouragement to lean into every creative calling, push our own boundaries, and discover our limitations. A reflection of our own lives cemented over thirty-six minutes.
