[00:19.940]-Aha.it's been a couple of years since the last release which was independent release the first capital pick it up I guess you must be in a good spot right now.You must be feeling pretty good now that the album is done and it's out.And is it kind of like having a baby or, you know. is it, was it, you know, you feeling good about casting this album out into the audience?
[00:51.048]Well, we get to start playing our songs as live right now. which is really exciting, you know, for one thing.
[00:57.690]So we've been looking forward to doing
[01:00.669]so it's ah...the album is kind of a, when the album comes out, it's a point were you can bring it to the public and must be great to finally get it in front of an audience to see the reaction to the songs, that sort of thing.
[01:16.575]Yeah, that's always good
[01:18.889]yeah, ha...ah...when you're writing the songs.I mean, do you find that you have to go to a certain place in your head and a certain place. get away from people and...
[01:33.900]I mean, yeah, I mean, it depends, you know. in the song.But usually you have to sort of get away and just have your own space.basically.
[01:55.699]yeah...Do the ideas come together when you're together or do you have ideas that you bring to each other individually?
[02:04.699]And it varies.Often we write together and sometimes we just do it on our own.
[02:14.689]Yeah, yeah.Does the writing come easy for you, you think. or does it, is it a laborious sort of thing?You think, you know, is it?You know what I mean
[02:27.699]Well, you know, I think when I watch hope. right, it amazes me how easy it seems to come to her.I mean, you never really know, you know, the songs just kind of happen.You know, there's a certain times where you just feel like writing and doing it.
[03:01.689]How does that come across to you?Hope.Does it surprise you that somebody might think you have an easy time writing?Does it seem hard for you?
[03:10.000]Sometimes it seems hard, but, you know, sometimes it's easy
[03:22.000]We're going to hear a live track here next.That.Is this one from the album or is this the one. an older one?
[03:30.009]this is from the new album. [03:32.099]Fantastic
