My latest selection coincides with a change in the weather, as this timely new release from the newly expanded pop punk veterans sees them explaining how ‘Trees Sway’ with this emotive ballad, the latest single to be extracted from their recent, and rather excellent, ‘Night Owls’ album:
Guitarist Luis Cabezas pulled up a bar stool to tell is a bit more about the track and its origin:
I was gifted the song in a dream and woke up abruptly, turned to Kelly and said, ‘Turn your phone audio record on, I’ll be right back.’ I grabbed a guitar and played the whole thing, front to back, complete with lyrics in one go. That became the song, and when she sang it for the record, it took on a life of its own.
