Singer Ian MacDougall’s would usually use stories in his lyrics to get across strong themes of adolescence, loss of innocence, and the questioning of evolving morals and aspirations. Banjo player Victor Tomiczek said in a promo video that MacDougall would “bring in a skeleton of a song, and the rest of the band would give it a heart, skin, and vital organs” [2]
