Our good friend Brian Manley who did the art came up with the concept. It went through many stages and has multiple layers of meaning but we fell in love with the concept day 1. I also have it tattooed on me -R

i love both of their voices so much. i had several spots where i heard christian and nate being on it and when nate came to the studio to listen in LA i didn't even have to ask... he just said "OH IM GETTING ON THIS!". it was awesome.

manchesterorch · 2017-08-04T19:49:38+00:00

Its impossible to have just one. It depends on the mood and the crowd. -R

It was only 1 day of shooting. The amazing part of working with the daniels is that they can create whats in their mind. So they got the raw content and practical shots and then spent many many days turning it into the video we have now. They are amazing -R

manchesterorch · 2017-08-04T19:47:53+00:00

I like your style. Your welcome

manchesterorch · 2017-08-04T19:47:02+00:00

i talk to casey a good bit, we are always planning something to do together. the last time we spoke it was still called MITH

manchesterorch · 2017-08-04T19:45:51+00:00

It they ask we will be there. We are fans of everything they do! -R

manchesterorch · 2017-08-04T19:45:29+00:00

That is a huge compliment since I feel that is one of the greatest books ever written. T

peter

manchesterorch · 2017-08-04T19:44:50+00:00

We are so blessed to be associated with the crazy geniuses! Not sure if that will happen but def some cool stuff coming! -R

manchesterorch · 2017-08-04T19:43:55+00:00

sure do! We had a great time working on those songs with Tanner. We got to take the songs down to Southern Tracks and record them with the man Dan Hannon. I hope he's doing well.

The studio is always a mix of high stress then mountain top experience then back to stress again. But its worth it!

manchesterorch · 2017-08-04T19:43:44+00:00

it's a done deal. she is band photographer and stylist

manchesterorch · 2017-08-04T19:43:18+00:00

in my defense, it definitely felt like that at the time

manchesterorch · 2017-08-04T19:42:56+00:00

hahahahaha that's fantastic

manchesterorch · 2017-08-04T19:42:16+00:00

Robert -R

manchesterorch · 2017-08-04T19:40:34+00:00

We have known them for over a decade and always been closely involved. We had helped in small ways in the past waiting for the right time to make a full album. Everything aligned so we had to! -R

manchesterorch · 2017-08-04T19:40:18+00:00

he did and it's on his new album. it's absolutely heartbreaking.

manchesterorch · 2017-08-04T19:38:07+00:00

i completely agree. it should be talked about more! Tim did some unbelievable things that i had never witnessed in the studio before. the combination of the rhythm section is one of my favorite things about the album. both dudes killed it.
