Quotes
- I think we just want to get back out there. We’re young now. We can work hard. We don’t get tired too much. Sleep when you’re dead.
- We didn’t set out for anything at the start…We almost immediately realized that we were enjoying writing songs with vocals much more than we were enjoying writing the instrumental stuff.
- It’s not about money for us. We’re not on a crusade to change it like some people are. We are happy for people to hear it. We’re just in this because we love music.
- Best thing about being brothers in the same band is that in the studio we can be really honest with each other.
- We feel a bit unworthy. We feel like we should have played a couple more times before being put that high on the Coachella poster.
