MH: ‘Real Big Trouble’ is another favorite of mine. Reminds me of back in the day when friends
and I used to jam in my living room. Love the acoustic feel of the video. Does anyone person write
the songs for the band?
JT: Thank you! The acoustic version of ‘Real Big Trouble’ was reworked mostly by Jake, Marty, and it
was co-produced by our friend Jakob Mooney. There's not one person that writes all of the music. It is
definitely a group effort. We kind of treat each song with a different process and never try to get too
comfortable in who is writing what.
MH: Does the band have any released albums or EPs?
JT: No. It's not a smart move for us to release a large collection of material all at once right now. As a
new band, we want to constantly stay at the forefront of people's attention, and I believe the best way to
do that is by putting out regular releases instead of one large work. I love the creative expression of
making an album and trying to make it cohesive, but first and foremost we need to grow and make smart
moves.
MH: I just saw your tour schedule. Nice batch of shows! No West Coast shows posted, though.
Has the pandemic slowed the band down in performing shows, and if so, was this time for you all
to create?
