How did we carve to this? I guess we whittled from the inside out at first, trying to cultivate and cata-pult these small songs over the castle wall. With instruments, levers, wires, and the sturdy encouraging hands of friends, we formed the band / art project, Breathe Owl Breathe.
Before the band came together, we were all in different places working on different things. I was
studying printmaking, Andrea was giving cello lessons, and Trevor was reading and making maps. When I first met Andrea we played music all day outside under a shady tree. Later that same day, we made a recording of short story songs inside a small messy room with drawings on the wall. The day I met Trevor, we played music inside a dorm room and later made a movie about zombies. The recording was a think piece; the movie was a romantic comedy; and we were friends forever (at least).
The name Breathe Owl Breathe came from a dream I had. There was an owl that was cutting its way through the cold, still night. Whoever was in charge of the cinematography of the dream my hatʼs off to them. It was from the perspective of just above a field mouse scurrying through blades of grass. The mouse then found a little divot in the ground, laid down on its back, and gave its last breath. The breath rose up into the sky, passing by the owlʼs beak.
