from: Austin, Texas
sound:
indie folk rock/ Americana. darker, introspective themes. Rather pretty layered arrangements with unique instrumentation and poignant, contemplative lyrics.
“It’s an album of struggle and shortcomings, how they loom around us and must be addressed,” singer/guitarist Sean Hale explained. “Whether it’s the pressure of success or the fear of failure, we’re all haunted. These experiences become our souvenirs.”
He added: “The instrumentation has a post apocalyptic theme. You will find bells, piano and omnichord featured in this song and all are firsts for us as a band. Lyrically I wanted to complement the intensity.”
