Homesick...I think of New York first.
When i think of New York, I think of music. When i think of music, I think of Olive Juice. When i think of Olive Juice, I think of Toby Goodshank.
It's funny that it took us both a move to Europe before we collaborated. But we did and i'm glad.
Recorded in New York and Berlin. These are some of the last songs recorded at Olive Juice Studio on Suffolk St. An end of a recording era.
Thank you MMM, Nan Turner and Carrie Foster.
-Brett Sullivan.
As a longtime American Anymen fan, I've always admired Brett's focused aggression on the mic, his acerbic lyrics, the ramshackle rockers he'd assemble for live gigs, and his honesty and stocism. I've had the good fortune of witnessing his musical visions become realised repeatedly over the past decade. I'm truly happy to have had this opportunity to collaborate with him on this release, which I feel marks a turning point in his writing. This material represents another step forward as we are afforded a zoomed-in glimpse of a chink in Brett's armour; an honest, reflective and inspired batch of songs.
