"I thought while writing it that I was going to come to some sort of grand realization, and that would be the album—the album would end with me figuring out my life and having this greater understanding of myself and generally being happy. In reality though, I think this first album is more a collection of musings, a collection of experiences and my thoughts on them in hindsight. It’s about how I’ve grown up through my relationships with different people. I’ve always been quite a solitary person, so maybe that realization was less about who I am as a person, but more about how I’ve grown to understand the importance of having other people in my life. The first track is very much about me and my goals, whereas the last song on the album is like, “We’ve gotta stick together.” If we’re alike, we’ve gotta stick together and fight against people that don’t want us to live." - Raleigh Ritchie on his album "You're a Man Now, Boy" via The Hundreds

Not only has a lifelong dream of mine now been fulfilled, but to be playing a character as fun, adventurous and dynamic as Vinder is the cherry on top. This is very cool.”

“There's a storm here to weather, the thunder's coming near Louder than ever and we don't know where to steer And though we can't be together, no matter what my dear I will love you forever and we will dance again next year”

Another saying I love is: If it’s mentionable it’s manageable… essentially if we are able to say these things out loud to one another then hopefully we can deal with them healthily.”
