    For you again was recorded in four days, in a living room in Minneapolis. We recorded it to tape with very few overdubs. The main vocals are recorded live, we didn’t splice any tracks so you’ll hear squeaking floorboards, chairs adjusting, the faint sound of a jet overhead, or headphone cords tapping against the back of guitars. These live moments that are captured on tape play an important role in capturing the essence of the energy in the room at the time we recorded. It’s my favorite way to record. Playing a song until you discover the heart of it, and then letting go just enough to let the song speak for itself. I feel that everything comes alive in that moment. At the end of the keeper take, as you take your headphones off, everyone looks around the room locking eyes, knowing that we had discovered the true meaning of that song and just laid it down on tape to share with whoever is willing to listen. It’s a truly magical moment. There's something special about going on a journey with other people, starting with the sketches of a song and letting the true meaning guide you to a finished product. There’s something very special and timeless in that.

about

The older I get, and the more I learn, the more complex life seems. And the further I move down the path of life, the simple principles that I learned as a younger man keep flooding back to the surface, but now those principles have deeper meaning and more weight than ever before. Things like forgiveness, faithfulness, generosity, and patience are harder to mine to the surface but are more crucial now than ever.

lyrics

YOUNGER MEN

I could fly away, I could hide my face
Hop on silver wings, just to ditch this place
I tell ya what / I've seen it done/ cause it’s been done to me
I know it's one way to live, but it ain't for me

Chorus

Sometimes you gotta let it go / sometimes you gotta let It ride
letting losers win while letting fires die
Sometimes we gotta take the long way down before we understand
We had it all figured out when we were younger men
When we were younger men

Verse
Well they ain't that bad, they just lost their way
The thing you fear the most, you become its slave
I'll tell you boy you're pure of hurt, you love the light like I hate the dark
You’ll find your weakness is the witness that keeps hope alive

Bridge

But I can’t let this one slide
There’s way too much for me on the line
Time to pony up and kiss my pride.
Kiss my pride
Kiss my pride goodbye
