“I played ‘Tilda Lee’ at a solo show. I told the crowd that it’s about a woman who turns to God because her son committed suicide. After the show, from the merch table, I see a woman crying with her husband next to her. I asked her what was wrong, and she told me that that’s what happened to them just a month ago. I knew then that the greater truth behind the song was important. Me and my family didn’t have that happen in our lives, but there’s real emotions in it that I’ve seen and experienced.” -Chris Comper

“We’re just as excited and passionate about making music as we were when we started. We’ve grown over the years, and it took a while to understand exactly what kind of project Velveteen was, but I think this is the strongest and most focused the band has ever been.” – James Nolan
“I think leaving something unresolved or unsaid also lends power to the listener and asks them questions, creating a more personal experience, as it then comes down to individual interpretation. In an age where we do have a lot of things shoved down our throats, it’s nice to have some downtime to reflect.” – Drew Younger

There’s a hum like 1000 decisions demanding to be made. The pressure to compete, consume, create, compare, capitalize & not capitulate will make your eyeballs sweat. It’s spiritual tinnitus. The cure is disconnecting body from brain with the vibrant heartfelt rumble of Minneapolis’ Black Widows.
