“We’re so confident in what Roses & Revolutions is now,” says Matt. “We didn’t question the songs as much. It was very organic. It’s liberating when the training wheels come off. We’ve gone through that, and we’re at a point where we can really grow.” Alyssa adds, “We’ve put our hearts and souls into this for a while. This EP is us in a nutshell. We finally know who we are musically and as songwriters.”
Their evolution has organically happened across EPs such as Roses & Revolutions [2018], Under The Spell [2020], Covers [2020], Midnight Monsters [2021], and Keep A Little Light On [2022]. Along the way, they amassed tens of millions of streams powered by the likes of “Big Bad Wolf,” “Boulevard of Broken Dreams,” “Dancing In A Daydream,” “Coffee,” and “The Pines.” Beyond praise from Spin, FLAUNT, American Songwriter, and more, Atwood Magazine christened them, “harbingers of intense emotion and perspective conveyed through undeniably immersive, catchy songs,” and GRAMMY.com applauded how the pair “weave intricate, imaginative folk-pop.”
