Sam sits down for a chat with Jon Simmons of Pensylvania outfit Balance and Composure ahead of their trip to Australia for New Bloom Festival. They cover the writing of their comeback album, the songs that the band have told to hit the bench for a short while, and how fans need to get their homework done ahead of the shows.
