one, two, three year turns fresh and seeming squeaky clean favorite day feeling seen let us dream oh of something new I've already been where I've been oh let us build a place to be I am going I am going with or without you with or without you take your time sit here everyday if you try you're on your way imagine all that is to be I am noticing the light in me consider there's no scarcity I am going I am going with or without you with or without you... I am going...

everything everything tell me everything you know and when you're through promise me then you'll tell me everything again only then... everything everything I'll tell you everything I know and when I'm through only then yes, when I'm through and only then I'll give you everything that I am I am...

No Seasons 02:47

Soup & Salad 04:16
knocking on the open front door come on in, make yourself at home I know you, you know me too from out there, you're right here now I'll make some food, some soup and salad how else to say that you're valid here the light you bring is everything I don't need nothing from you

too little, too late too little, too late it doesn't matter we are in the future yesterday sun's burning brighter storms keep on comin' anyway there's nowhere to run (everyone is from somewhere and also nowhere) there's nowhere to hide (every now and then the puzzle solves itself) there's nowhere to run (everyone is from somewhere and also nowhere) there's nowhere to hide (every now and then the puzzle solves itself) refuse to accept that we are resigned to this fate they deserve better we can start over today it's never too late (everyone is from somewhere and also nowhere) it's never too late (every now and then the puzzle solves itself) it's never too late (everyone is from somewhere and also nowhere) it's never too late (every now and then the puzzle solves)

I've been preoccupied lately sitting here being lazy no one's asked me to do anything so I sit idly by deleting all my emails there was that one time someone called me asking if I might be free I said sure I'm not busy just promise me one thing that all this work will be for free be for free... all this work will be... are you busy... let me (let me) check my (check my) calendar oh what does it matter let me (let me) check my (check my) calendar oh what does it matterrrrrghhh I slept all day from nine to five tryin' to keep the dream alive but there's one thing that I have to do remember to say no to you

about

And Y Et is Nic Jenkins (Albuquerque, NM) and Kelsey Mines (Seattle, WA). This duo collaboration "yes-ands" their way into a lo-fi, collage-form, experimental pop band blending electro/acoustic through-composed part writing and improvised soundscapes."

A pandemic-induced project, the duo remotely wrote and tracked each song against a backdrop of both solitude and friendship. The album approaches themes of mutual-aid, deep listening, climate change, over commitment, and meditation.
