The title came at the end - we assembled 14 songs first and then culled three which we felt weren’t quite there. With this set, Lauren and I tried to write closer together, instead of bringing finished songs to each other. We were intentional about blending more so that we weren’t strangers to each other's songs during tracking. We didn’t set out with a theme apart from our always goal of writing about what we know, what was moving us at the time and putting ourselves in vulnerable spaces. Now, listening to the finished album, the twin ideas of the passing of time and water are woven through, unpressured, over and over.
We had a fluid list of titles but the only one that stuck was The Raft Is Not The Shore. I’d seen this line in a discussion between a Vietnamese and American, two poets and activists. The line is from a Buddhist parable and one of the meanings was the idea to hold your beliefs lightly. In light of the entrenched spaces we find ourselves in in 2022, this felt prescient and gave further meaning to our songs. To be willing to walk in another’s shoes, or to at least imagine, was something we wanted to hold ourselves to. So here’s how the album unfolds…
