Stay Out Late is ultimately, the end result of understanding who we are, and
more importantly, who we are not. This will be our 15th year as a band, and our
5th record overall. In the years preceding the making of this record, we all had
to define what it meant for us to be happy making music. There are certain
mechanisms and tropes we all fall into as a result. And as hard as we may try to
emulate what we consider to be higher art, or rather, classic music; we always
end up with a Buxton record. Sergio couldnt write for almost 2 years after Half
A Native. The answers to why had run dry. We all saw each other, hung out and
everything was like normal. I cant really pinpoint the moment it all made sense
again. The question had suddenly changed to why not and we were back in the
studio making demos. There was a lurking sense that nobody would ever hear these
songs, and that lead to a sort of creativity Im not sure wed really experienced
before. All ideas were on the table, and more importantly they stayed on the
table. There are a handful of truly great masterpieces and the attempt of
achieving that is one of the most daunting and exhausting pursuits any artist
can take on. In the van were constantly educating ourselves and finding new and
in many cases old points of inspiration. Whether it be Mark Hollis, HC McEntire,
Mickey Newbury or rediscovering the genius of Bette Midler, we find ourselves at
the mercy of our own limitations of expression. Yet somehow in our most
vulnerable project, were simultaneously the most comfortable in our skin as weve
ever been. The core of this record is about being in it for the long haul,
looking back, and being able to accept it all. We can only hope that the
listener can in some way share and make tangible the joy that went into making
this record.
