Lowlights turns 5 today!! This album was developed throughout 2019, after we toured our first album and then hit the studio for album #2 . Then, thanks to a pandemic, our takes sat on ice for months until they could be safely mixed and mastered. (Totally worth the wait!)
This album was also our first vinyl pressing with Spirograph Studies - we have nearly run out in fact! (We are down to the last box…)
Huge thanks to everyone who contributed to the making of it, and to everyone who has a copy ❤️ by @franswinn
