ARTIST: Gentlemen Hall

SONG: All Our Love

BIRTHDATE: 80s kids

HOMETOWN: Boston, MA

CURRENT LOCATION: Basically the Eastern United States

AMBITIONS: Become internet immortalized in an overused meme.

TURN-OFFS: Carnies (small hands), wine coolers, losing a game of Risk.

TURN-ONS: Sunsets, studio time, surfing.

DREAM GIG: Reanimate George and John, play a show with the Beatles on the International Space Station.

FAVORITE LYRIC: “Music is My Aeroplane” – Red Hot Chili Peppers

SONG I WISH I WROTE: Beethoven’s 5th Symphony.

MY FAVORITE CONCERT EXPERIENCE: As a band collectively, seeing Mike Snow at the SXSW festival in 2012 was a game-changer. We’d always liked their music but their energy live was unreal and it played a part in how we’ve approached songwriting ever since.

I WROTE THIS SONG: Because the news today all seems to be bad, and a huge part of that is some of us losing sight that we’re all in it together and we only have one shot at life, you know? “All Our Love” is meant to be an homage to the potential for human oneness.
