In Their Words: “We wrote ‘Every New Sky’ pretty early on in our first year performing as a duo — when we were first developing a sound together that we liked. It’s a true-to-form duet tune. Sort of an anti-sentiment sentimental song that concludes with the phrase, ‘You’ll agree that it’s so lonely being alone.'”
