"An indie/art-rock group made up myself, Rob McCall, and Corey Jordan. We write the songs. Nash Robb lays down the bass, our friends Zack Fitzgerald and Rob Zaccaria sprinkle their talent into the sound. The guy who runs our lab and engineers our sound is Mark Bengtson. Mark introduced us to Allen Tate of San Fermin, and Allen came on board to produce this 2 EP project ‘Colorful Lungs,’ In Brooklyn, Allen gave these songs form so we could give them color.
Thom Yorke once said, “One of the things I find most offensive about what people say about our [Radiohead’s] music is when they say ‘it’s depressing.’” We feel the same. Depression has power when harnessed properly, and has fueled some of the greatest achievements of human history. We all suffer, and to turn away in ignorance is unforgivable in our opinion.
Our music embraces the eternal struggle we all have within - whether it’s mental illness, addiction, regret, loneliness, etc. Don’t think we’re calling ourselves ‘poets and heroes,’ we want our music to serve as a reminder that WE ARE ALL poets and heroes - doctors, police, sanitary workers, cooks, single mothers, the incarcerated - all of us can be the poets and heroes of our collective existence. Through our music, we attempt to express this sentiment. Some of you may hate it, some may love it, but at the end of the day we are who we are. Give it a listen if you’d like … or go listen to whoever brings you peace".
