The members are all originally from Alaska. Justin our drummer bought a home in Colorado and makes Gin and Whiskey for a living. Willy is a captain on a ship based in Malta for the past couple of years. Harvey lives with his family in Washington state and Ryan and Ray reside in Portland, Oregon. With all of the logistics and facing a pandemic, wild fires, and massive rioting in their hometown, Hell & High Water was a challenging, yet cathartic record to make.
