After recording some initial demos in North Carolina, The Rosebuds headed to Eau Claire, Wisconsin to record with their old friend and former band member Justin Vernon.

Their comfort and connection with Vernon allowed them to stretch their creative limbs, as Vernon gently teased out some of the band's most stellar musical performances to date.

With longtime collaborators Matt McCaughan on drums and BJ Burton co-producing and mixing the album, the band was able to quickly zero in on the dynamics and textures they wanted, while still feeling free to experiment with new styles and production ideas.

The resulting songs are punchier, more confident, and more hook-laden than anything the band has produced before, without diluting the emotional foundation that defines the band.

Each of the 11 songs on Sand + Silence resonates with the unusual creative synergy that won't loosen its grip on Ivan and Kelly's cores.

Their honesty and passion filtered through their refined songwriting skills make this album feel alive, pulsing with flesh and blood.

In a pop culture dominated by canonized megastars, and ephemeral one-hit-wonders, the creative fire that refuses to stop burning within The Rosebuds makes the band and this album something truly special.
