finding a way forward together
An international collaboration of nearly ten years has yielded four tours in Sweden, seven tours in the US, and an endless amount of coffee. Oh, and two albums of music, including their newest release A Way Forward on October 16.
A Way Forward was recorded in Gothenburg, Sweden, in June of 2026. A little nutty to get an album recorded, mixed, mastered, and manufactured in four months?
Absolutely.
But the music demanded it — full of driving melodies, lush harmonies, and a sense of joy that can’t wait to be shared.

From the musicians:
The nearly ten years of collaboration between our two bands has seen tunes crafted in rehearsal spaces, living rooms, and sound checks, between cups of coffee and Swedish fika. This album is an homage to the new folk music tradition of composition, honoring what has come before and pushing it into the future, framing the old and new in ways that feel uniquely ours to share.
Even with an ocean between us, we are buoyed by the joy of creation together, no matter what life throws our way. This is how we find a way forward.
