Description
The project is inspired by the bands experience growing up in a small town in upstate New York hence the album title, Townie. While the lyrics are hyperspecific about the bands own hometown, the sentiment is universal. Nostalgia not only for your hometown, but for your adolescence and the blissful naivet of youth. Regret about how with age and the clear hindsight that comes with it, you wish youd done things differently or appreciated them for what they really were at the time. The feeling of being forgotten and left behind as folks come and go. The relief of having made it out. The survivors guilt of having made it out.
