In Their Words: “When I was young, there was a forest fire caused by a lightning strike in the gulch right behind my house outside of Tucson. As I was walking by the sea one night in Los Angeles watching the sunset, I remembered that fire. Maybe the memory of a brush fire is a more adequate way to describe a sunset. Tyler built a beautiful track around the words that feels like the ocean sounds.” –John Isaac Watters (Rainstorm Brother)
