One afternoon in the summer of 2020, after spending multiple days too anxious to leave the couch, we drove to Lake Leelanau and rented a boat. With three wetsuits and absolutely zero water sports skills we had a wonderful time wiping out while Charlie Steen stayed dry and captured it all on camera. We wanted to show the juxtaposition of one moment thinking you have everything figured out, then suddenly being deep in over your head. Ultimately it's about getting back up. Being there for each other. Looking ridiculous. Trying again, and again, and again. This song was inspired by patterns. Small perfect patterns in nature like the fractals in a tree leaf, or big messy patterns like the changing from one season to another. It's always a cycle. This song is about the comfort and anxiety that comes from those cycles. That, and mosquitos.
