So freaking excited about this next album. Love the feeling of these songs. David is warming up the washboard here as we all find our isolation nooks for the recording marathon over the next couple days. Swimming in a sea of cords and coffee cups, running hand dryers and rubbing sticks together to keep the studio above freezing.
