The wheres and whys and what fors (as told by Northern Heretic)

“Simple words remind me of ###t” – Pepper Keenan, 1994

Damn straight. Keep it simple. Say a lot with a little. Pepper has always been a wise man. So we followed his advice. This one goes all the way back to Birmingham circa 1969, but it doesn’t try to sound retro. It is us, here and now, reflecting what we see and hear out in the world. The goal was to draw you in with simple elements that carry great weight.

»And One More…« is different every time we play it. It starts with a meditative structure, then goes where it wants to go. What you hear is one version recorded live in the studio, as if you were standing there with three of us on that day in April 2023. This one is near and dear to us because of its unique qualities. We hope you feel the same.

The track was recorded at Suburban Elvis Studios in New York State. Once again, we worked with Joe Kelly, who helped us to achieve the sonic nuance we wanted for this song. The cover art for »And One More…« is by New York artist Melissa Pracht, who also created the paintings and illustrations for all our releases and merchandise.
