ANECDOTE

Secret Reunion Sparked In Studio

  • Adam and the band quietly reunited after conversations beginning around 2022 and formal writing in spring 2023.
  • They met at Neil's studio, hugged, and immediately started writing, with "Mayday" one of the first songs from that run.
INSIGHT

Dual Vocals Add New Dynamics

  • Adam and Matt's voices complement each other, enabling harmonies and unison singing that add new dynamics to live shows.
  • The shared vocal timbre makes dual-vocal arrangements feel natural rather than forced.
ADVICE

Lock In Arrangements Fast

  • Rehearse quickly but intentionally: the band locked in vocal arrangements within a few shows after a short rehearsal period.
  • Use switching roles and harmonies to maximize dynamics and keep live performances fresh.
