“DuRoche’s drumming was like rainfall that fell in love with gravity, at times almost violent with intensity. He disappeared into the dance of his instrument.” -Oregon Arts Watch

Weiss, Shaw, and DuRoche hope that listeners will find empathy, healing, and a genuine outreach of emotion in the project, which certainly contains their processing of the pandemic experience. DuRoche, in particular, hopes listeners will find “A surrender. Not giving up or giving in, but an invitation to a different kind of generosity amid so much noise in the world.”
