The band’s new album, Monterey, was recorded not in a studio, but on the stages of theaters and churches across North America that have always coaxed the band’s most uninhibited expressions. It is a method that allowed the band to finally capture on record the same fearlessness and spontaneity usually only achieved in a live setting.
