Snails

A transitionary EP blending new material with intimate acoustic versions of fan favorites. Stripped-back, vulnerable, and deeply nostalgic.

It's like a private living room session with the band before they got huge.

A quiet, reflective look back at youth through the lens of acoustic intimacy.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The transition from the full-band energy of Janet into the title track's more reflective pace.
The way the vocal strain becomes audible during the bridge of the acoustic version of On Your Porch.
The intimate, close-mic'd guitar squeaks on Tune Out that make it feel like a private performance.
