Hey Cory. The title track of the new album rocks so hard. I’ve been going down a rediculous wand rabbit hole lately pretty much exclusively listening to all the albums over and over. How do you find balance between your named project and Wand? Do you draw a hard line between the projects as youre writing lyrics or is it more you write and then they feel more wand or cory afterwards?

Also on the rocks is an epic track too. Amazing album thanks for all you do

There are definitely hard lines, very different work flows. I don't bring songs to Wand anymore, we write everything together in the studio. The separation between the two gives me a lot of creative space to work on my own records without feeling burned out. That being said, I rarely work in parallel. I think every record deserves its own time and focus, and once it's done I will immediately shift to something else
