The wonderful fellas from Butter were in the studio this week. Guitarist Aaron, bassist Tom, and drummer Jarrett make warm-but-glossy pop gems with juuuuuust the right amount of funk, soul, and electronic accoutrement - a sound that is, impossibly, great for both dancing AND long, contemplative walks. We talk musical growth, their excellent 2019 joint "Nicotene," and, yes, bodily fluids.
