Fifteen years after making our second album we decided it was time to make a third. Not as easy as it sounds.  Were we still a band? Thankfully we’d kept playing our instruments, but because we were split between coasts and couldn’t rehearse, the plan was to record old songs that never made it on an album.  However the present seemed to haunt the innocence of the old tunes, just as the past seemed to haunt every new one we’d write in response. The result is a collection of old and new songs that have been gently visited by the ghost of it all.
