First off, and on top of the other incredible things that 2021 has provided, how does it feel to have your debut album out in the world finally?
Courtney: I'm almost scared of it now. Like, I know that we can top it, but the thing is, more than anything, it is us figuring out who we are as musicians. And the whole process was compromised and compromised just because of the nature that it had to be made. We made it during a time when everything was shut down. We made it in a kitchen, with our producer Dan [Braunstein] of course, after all. But it's cool that it resonates with people in the way it has, just because the process was so humble. It wasn't the big elaborate thing that we always envisioned it would be.
Michael: The process made me want to rip my hair out. It was the most stressful time of my life for sure. So it's just nice knowing that people like it.
