Sunrise
San Miguel de Allende proved to be an incredible setting for an Isolation experience. Although we stayed home most of the time, going out and experiencing the magical town's small cobble stoned streets, parks, and cozy corners, allowed us to free our minds and get inspired. Enough to tell a story through music.

Oh hey! We finished!
Upon the finishing of the EP, Michael treated us with a celebratory feast. You can appreciate its deliciousness in the picture. We ate and watched some Black Mirror to celebrate the good work.
One of our best buds, Mat, was the first to listen to our EP. We shared it with him shortly after finishing it and he shared something a little extra special with us too.
When the exciting, fun and hard working week came to an end, we watched the sunrise as we flipped our internal clocks. We celebrated the completion of the EP to it’s best potential by putting it on a cassette, taking it to the roof and listening to the creation.
