Our first and final album, It’s All Temporary, is out now! It’s hard to sum up how much this band and this record mean to us, we’re truly so proud of these songs. Recorded, mixed, and mastered by @nicholasfstarr.bsky.social Album art by @salmonfather.bsky.social

It’s All Temporary album art, depicting a willow tree with electrical wiring instead of vines and a cardinal.

just realized that when I’ve shared just about every project this year I basically always say “I love this band and I love this record” and that’s what we in the record biz call “a very good thing”

Just uncovered this awesome memory from @summerbruise.bsky.social sessions. (possibly my favorite song on the record actually) I had such high hopes for Melody being a lil studio-rat kid, but now she’s got the 2 year old shyness

7 dollar gas. Well, I guess I'll buy an electric car. Oh those are 60 thousand dollars? Well at least electricity is cheap. Oh the government won't build solar panels because it's "Too transgender"? Well at least wages are going up. Oh the idea of jobs is fake now? Well at least everyone is happ

I tried really hard to get Melody into Rhapsody in Blue (literally once) and I feel it may have stuck

itching for more tonal options in the studio. I have a morgan 30/800 that gets leaned on a lot and an orange and a twin. what’s a good “high gain” must have head? (extra points for interesting boutique suggestions)

the internet has been bumming me out lately so I decided to read Grapes of Wrath in my free time to really pick me up

I think sometimes you can’t see the current under the waves, or lack thereof, and it can feel like there’s no movement at all when really you’re in the middle of a very long slow process. It’s very hard to see the forest for the trees on days like that but down time is productive, too
