Jets Overhead

0:04Yeah, I'm that Adam Kittertier. How you doing man? I am great. How you doing? I've been good We just added bystander last week to the playlist. Oh, that's that's wicked because of that one note How do you hold it? Is that is that actually holding it at the end there? Yeah? We got a band of people that can sing they can all come in with you Yeah, we'll have some we'll have some serious BG's in that section and maybe a little extra delay on the vocal tip There you go. Well, how are things you're calling for? Where are you right now? I'm for my mom In my the house. I grew here nice

0:57Yes, when are you guys gonna come out here? Well realistically Matt we we have to Our thing is our main agenda right now is to an EP right away, but We kept them we held them back knowing that the nation if not

1:43More than the reason we're we're not going to be in Edmonton for when do you expect to get into studio then? Well, we haven't gotten that far yet as far as planning goes We still haven't even you know yeah, right? Well, so I guess the EP is just kind of like a little hold still we're coming

2:30Yeah, tide you over. So how come these songs didn't make the original session? What what made you hold them back? We in our back pocket and those songs by center in particular had every right to be on no nations But all the songs that we figured you know with center and give it a better shot

3:20Can you give me a little sound bit on bystander? But it definitely you know greed being a bystander to you know the bystander effect privy to the fact that there's Terrible things happening near you, but you're not actually effect kind of a human condition that if it's not bugging you

4:08It's kind of easier just to talking about you know the by I I'm guilty just as guilty of it, you know even just things and taking care of the planet, you know When it comes to taking action and we just really that's really didn't do anything about it

4:58It just takes me away from music, but do you think that's because the internet everyone's so insulated now? That they just very good in our own houses all the time To the point happening to me. Oh, why should I do anything about it?

5:51Did Neil not saying I'm not like that. I mean I think that's a lot That's just kind of a human condition until it's coming right at you and yeah Where did the little the little it makes me think of little red writing and where did that reference come from was it from there? Yeah, I mean, I think that's a pretty common fable now. I'm it's also, you know the three little pigs thing We I think we like in wool major You think you're gonna write more politically on you sound like you're getting more political Well donations was definitely partially political. I mean in a

6:41You may be activist the right word. We all we all read the newspaper now. Yeah, we're not in our 20s anymore We care about what's going on. How do you guys write is it you that brings songs in on acoustic or is it more of like a jam The mountain figure it out the majority of the songs and the bystander EP were written as Jokingly with a buddy or something. It's it's not easy to do that and feel and humming pahrto

8:08We overcame and so what we do is essentially I will go back through all cool stuff And including lyrics and so you know again you get into like sort of a almost like a

9:06state of You mentioned heading for nowhere in there Did you guys realize like when those melodies came out that I mean you hear that melody for the first time and it hooks you There's there's I don't know anyone that can hear that song and not get it But did you guys realize because if you're just jamming it out and you just feel it there was actually the pre-chorus where we

9:55We we had the we had the core we had the core chorus melodies map. We some melody Who's the third voice? Who's the third part on the harmonies that mate? I'm trying to remember God Well Luke sing harmonies live and I pretty sure it's his voice

10:41It's like me harmonizing to myself or Antonio Harmonizing to herself But if I remember at least live I'm sure you guys had a tune called George Harrison on the original EP Why him of all people That's not just reminded us of George Harrison's vibe when we wrote it like the slightly Indian sound You know good been easy way to refer to ourselves and we are trying to write and remember songs be like oh

11:45Yeah, that one that kind of sounded like George Harrison. Yeah, and that's really how very underrated he was yes He was can I get a couple more sound clips of you on songs that we play sure yeah like addiction Oh, you guys are spending the diction. Yeah, well again fairly Universal like new people I respected people like never would have thought that time a realization that you know

12:52It was addicted to certain things pretty universal issue How'd you get into your 30s you're like wow you mentioned getting into your 30s a few times now I feel like it's changed you I think being in my 30s. I think 27 yeah, so you're yeah, you're 30 or getting into my 30 point in feeling body and

13:43You that comes out in the writing too for sure I mean confidence is everything when it comes to writing I mean be being a musician and get not just being good

14:55You still practice then you still do scales and stuff Dales yeah, I'm gonna be honest with you, but yeah, I'm playing a ton Yeah singing if I even just stops don't sing for a week and it's like any sport, you know It's a muscle muscles if you you stop playing squash for a week You got to keep up for me personally like I I rate three four days not singing and waking up in the morning

16:14There's a noticeable calmness well, that's because life's a song you like that segue. That's huge You've got the you get the sound quote on that one. Yeah, thank you. You want to give me a clip on that tune too? That one really was just probably Yeah, just how you don't think about it

17:04Have your teens like likes a song you can't really go anywhere without here music is everywhere before I let you go We got to do five questions five quick questions one more answers. Okay rotor studio Yeah, cool, Lennon or McCartney
