Frontman Barry Johnson along with co-founding guitarist Chase Knobbe, new drummer Pat Ware - and longtime bassist Matt Ebert wrote enough songs to fill a full length, and then worked to get songs lifted from emails between Johnson and one of his musical hero Impossibles’ guitarist/vocalist Rory Phillips, with whom he had been co-writing long distance, to match the ones written at full volume. (“Bedroom charm versus live rock band,” Johnson explains.)
