The band spoke with Spotlights & Lyrics about their songwriting process, current tour and what it was like to be one of iHeartRadio’s featured artists. “It was amazing! The majority of the acts in the competition are already pretty established with very large fanbases so to have stayed in the top 5 as long as we did really shows how dedicated our fans are. It was an awesome thing to see.”

The band is currently on tour, performing acoustic sets across the country. Fans can expect to hear their songs in a much more raw form in these unplugged sets. “There's a lot more emphasis on the song writing when the tunes are stripped down like this.” Some of their favorite songs to perform live include “Misbehavior,” “Live Alone” and Fine By Me.”

On the topic of songwriting, the band discussed their process for achieving songs that are simultaneously upbeat and catchy and feature well-constructed lyrics and melodies. “Our songs typically start out as folk songs. Either Ben or myself start with a guitar or piano, some lyrics and a melody and once we've got something with a solid foundation, we dress it up with synths and other ear candy.”
