The band's third album, Deliverance, was written somewhere between Hartford and Kalamazoo, recorded over the summer, and released on November 17, 2024 through Be Here Sound and YAP Records. Mixed by me, with pointers from Louie and Conlan. Art by my brother Will, and featuring Noah Sautner on Boefinger.
