THE VAULT

Our friends and documentary filmmakers Slow Blink followed us to Michigan's isolated and eccentric Mackinac Island, MI as we set out to write a record from within the frozen forests of our hometown.

This was a record written in the isolation of our 800 square-foot Los Angeles apartment during the COVID-19 pandemic. We had to get some shit off our chests.  

We asked 5 artist friends to remix one song from the "Backpack of Snacks" album. The result is a tasty lil' collection titled, "Remix of Snacks". 

We submitted ourselves to a self-created color theory writing workshop where we each wore glasses with colored lenses during every possible waking hour for 7 months. The purpose; could rose colored glasses truly alter our view of the world? Could exterior influence change our interior outlook, and therefore our creative output? The outcome; "Backpack of Snacks".
