Release: First single 'Not Always'.
‘Not Always’ is a song for our times that acknowledges the sense of disturbance and uncertainty that so many are experiencing but carries a life-affirming message of hope and reassurance. The lyrics were penned by lead vocalist Maisie Gilbert, 17, in the days before her 2020 High School graduation with the pandemic in full swing. The song, arranged by the trio of siblings, was recorded a cappella and live off the home studio floor in one take with Maisie and her brothers Reuben and Frieden sharing a single mic.
