Hands 04:03
what if I were blind? would i still know you? i think i might. i'd run a finger down your spine, to the small of your back, above your ass and trace your scar between ribs 8 & 9, this is how i'd know you're mine bodies do not lie, but i lie awake wondering how we'll survive what if i went deaf? could i still feel your laughter, loud and bright? i'd run the back of my hands across your neck to feel the vibration echo in my soul, as though we're one bodies do not lie, but i lie awake wondering how we'll survive what if we could’t touch? would our memories hold what our hands cannot? and if bodies do not lie, then why ... aren't you here?

about

Releasing three years after we stepped into our first studio, all of the songs you'll hear on this EP came from the earliest sessions—a collection of vignettes that started out as simple songs born from voice and a guitar or tiny harmonica. Some stayed there and some grew through collaboration and exploration. Since a lot can change and want to change in three years, we're releasing the first 'side' of this project as its own EP—Volume 1.1 or v1.1 for short.

Once we release the other half (as v1.2) we'll make the full-length album available on vinyl and any other fun, physical ephemera that tickles our fancy in said future.
