On the first record, the songs contain raw, absolute and instinctual feelings. In many ways, Better Now is the afterglow of this. We're reflecting and understanding that relationships change over time. Complicated situations can be just that, complicated. Feelings can remain unresolved. If the first record is bright and bold, this one is the softer gradients in between; the sunrises and the sunsets. Both projects make up the full spectrum of who we are. Better Now is just the moodier, misunderstood one. Musically the records really are twins. We wrote all of the songs at the same time. Finishing Better Now, we really felt that it was the close of a massive musical and personal chapter. It's bittersweet but so meaningful to be able to chronicle our lives between these projects. Ultimately, we are optimistic; 'better now,' after the ups and downs of the relationships and turbulence of our twenties.
