A long, arduous summer and a graphite laden notebook gave way to a spontaneous creative burst that we now know as Summer Fragments. Recorded entirely in a nine-hour stretch in a small studio apartment, using only acoustic instruments on hand, the goal was to liberate half-thoughts and give them a stage usually reserved for full-fledged songs. The tracks are presented in the order in which they were recorded. The EP is sometimes catchy, sometimes noisy, and sometimes quiet.

Summer Fragments is an exercise, a compulsion, and a document.

We recommend headphones! (as Fully endorsed by George M)
