Long story short: Its a collaborative album about a summer in a dream house. Its cliche, but that about covers the meat of it.

​

Slightly longer story: After we finished The Blue Demo & Outlaw, we didn't stop making music. Cam came in, and then we couldn't help it, there something making us to do it. I couldn't call it inspiration, and it definitely wasn't pressure... it was like there was a muse or something. An invisible momentum that was nudging us in all the right directions. 

For some crazy reason, even with the quick turnaround, there was a clear shift in our minds. Our sounds. A new energy. A new feeling in the air. Maybe is was optimism. Maybe it was hope. Personally, I think it might have been happiness. Regardless, that period of 4 months is probably one of the most productive, fun, and enlightening times in my life.

There's a lot of love in this album, I hope you can feel it.  

Quick maybe-not-so-obvious note about the demos. The colors are a guideline to the ideas & themes of the project. They aren't particularly representative of anything, as much as they are the framework from which I build the album up. My head-space, my visions, my feelings are all directed by the color from the beginning, and then reflected back into the music.

If Blue is a wavy, cool, melancholic, recessed, cautious-optimism, then Red is its aggressive, powerful, impulsive, intense, passionate, malicious counterpart. Whatever it was that I found with Idledale, this was the rebound of that. 

​

There's a lot to say about this project. I went through hell making it. I left the place that I loved. I left people that I loved. I lost people that I loved. It was hard. It is hard. But that's what this album means to me. Hardships, struggles, rawness, expression, and honesty, and if that's not welcomed, then why would I even do what I do...
