What a massive shout out from all time legend, and what a wonderful, positive message he has to share for all us indie movie makers.

Our new single One of a Thousand is out everywhere today. Stream it wherever you get your music!

Two years ago, Hurricane Helene hit us hard. In conversations around town, it was often said that this was a one-in-a-thousand year storm, a singular geological event. Landslides and flooding on a scale never seen before and hopefully never seen again. Still in the same breath, we all seem to agree that we have to treat this as if it’s just one of many. The start of a new chapter.

Thank you for all the streams and donations over the weekend! Y’all are the best. We hope the song can provide a bit of solace in this anniversary as well as some contemplations for the future.

Much love, RW

Hey y’all, we have a new song to share. It's born from Hurricane Helene which tore through our town two years ago this weekend. It is available on bandcamp today (link in bio) and will be released across all digital platforms on Monday.

All proceeds from this weekend's bandcamp sales will go to these organizations. They have been essential in the immediate survival and the ongoing recovery & resilience of our area after the hurricane:
