"Rolling Down to Old Maui" is a 19th-century sea chantey that chronicles whalers returning to Maui following a season in the Arctic. We plan to use this instrumental version as an intro to our original song "Lost At Sea."

released February 8, 2020
Jessie recorded the cello with our friend Simon Tuozzoli at Up Recording -- in a single take with no click track, because whaling ships didn't have metronomes. (Okay, they probably didn't have cellos either lol...) Simon mixed the song for us and added percussion and sound effects.

Listened to the first release and knew I needed it in my collection. Thought I could hear some Therapy? (Which I love) on one of the songs, then listening to intro on first song here confirmed that. Although there’s definitely not that throughout, they have their own sound but like the other review said, has that 90s rock sound, the awesome type, but with heavier doom! There’s excellent lyrics throughout. Helping me zone out today… cheers 🤘😈🤘 Solitude & Sin
