About
In August of 2013, we gave you East, part one of our collection of songs and themes that we lovingly refer to as Frontiers. West, the conclusion to this story, is an entirely different collection of songs that balance the weight of its sister release with precision.
The two-part album explores the band's interpersonal relationship with the places and landscapes that shape our art and our lives. And through reflections on those relationships with the times and places, we examine the context of our own space. What does America mean to us? How did growing up in the various places we’ve lived shape us?
With these songs we write a sort of open letter to our country and our time. This is what living is about, and in part, what East and West are about, for us.
The truth is in every moment.
