Two years have passed since the release of “The Road” in 2013, and we’ve been a lot of places (pun intended) not just geographically, but in our band, relationships and day-to-day lives. After playing more than 300 shows and traveling coast to coast, we knew recording a new album was long overdue. As we put our noses to the grindstone we discovered that for us, writing on the road is better than writing anywhere else. We’re able to constantly draw from new experiences, conversations and gain inspiration from some pretty spectacular views. The songs on this record were written from the Atlantic to the Pacific and then glued together in the middle of the US. The title, “Places,” just came to us during the #DriveOnTour last spring. We felt like all of these songs painted a picture of where we’ve been and what we’ve gone through over these past couple of years. Our goal with this album was to keep the music honest, simple and stripped down; hoping that these songs find you well and relate to the places you have been, are and will be going.
