The Muscle Shoals, Alabama-based band recorded the album for Single Lock Records, run by Civil Wars’ guitarist John Paul White and Alabama Shakes’ keyboardist Ben Tanner. The Brave And The Blue – recorded following a fire which devastated frontman Matt Green’s apartment – is filled with pensive lyrics and atmospheric effects.

“We took the title of our record, The Brave and the Blue, from the lyrics of ‘Losing My Train,’” Green tells American Songwriter. “It’s really a song about experience and memory and how the two interact and lead us to interpret and narrate our lives. We were going for a more non-linear and emotional feel with the video to mimic daily experience. Life’s not really a straight line. At least, it’s not for me. It’s more of a jumble of experiences and emotions that I try to make sense of and arrange later.”
