Their new EP, We Go On, was recently released by Telegraph Hill Records and channels all the verve and love for live music that only a couple of years of shutdowns could produce. The energy on the new tracks is raw and direct and the subject matter is an interesting blend of highly personal and widely universal. We Go On questions being human, being alive, and what we’re all looking for. But it does that while acknowledging how much pent-up energy many people in the world have been navigating for some time now.
The band has been known for their signature combination of influences, from singer/songwriter fare to Punk to more melodic Rock ‘n Roll, and We Go On does an excellent job of distilling what their sound is right now and the identity they’ve been crafting in recent years. I spoke with Bobby Mahoney about the challenges of getting back to live play, its joys, and the very human themes that we find on display in the songs that make up We Go On.
