Pre-save our new album 'Father, A Moment With You' coming out on May 8th! https://music.apple.com/us/album/father-a-moment-with-you/1894110797 https://open.spotify.com/prerelease/4F24Xo4iEKbkXQG2Ek2qvO?si=L5VrAkoiSqKJ_BtbBApb3Q We perform live shows every week, but learning to capture it for YouTube was whole new ball game haha. "No Roots" was our first video, and we filmed it live with a single microphone. It took us a few more videos to get the equipment and experience we needed to master it! ►Live concert version https://youtu.be/jrdbh1xpesM?t=71 2020 Branson Show version https://youtu.be/hQqks9HnVNM?t=967 Buy or stream the album https://li.sten.to/livesessions01 ►Julianne enhancing vocals: The Scientist https://youtu.be/WwqFUY4HcS8 Bohemian Rhapsody https://youtu.be/X_XVrm6zXmw I Am The Man, Thomas https://youtu.be/XVDs4N5Avdg ►Photo: Rehearsal at Katie's house https://www.instagram.com/p/BhzeVtgggbP ----------------------- In August 2023, we had so much fun being on national television in Germany!
