Rules

Laura Lee's really good at following the rules; Mark's really good at breaking them. It's what's at the heart of our musical progression together: she brings order and structure to his playing, he encourages freedom and experimentation in hers. This song is probably the most perfect encapsulation of that balance. While at the farm, Laura Lee was practicing playing without the rules and wrote this tough-as-nails, doesn't-give-a-s*** bass line. Mark played some scales and phrasing on top, inspired by Kourosh Yaghmaei, the incredible Persian guitar wizard, and we laid some badass Ennio Morricone-inspired vocals on top. Et voila.
