"UNAWARES": A TRACK BORN FROM INTENSE CREATIVITY
“Unawares was the first song I wrote for the EP. Within the band, it's better known by its working title, Horror Jackson. You might hear where the association comes from. It's kinda Rootbrain in a nutshell—heavy, groovy, badass, and full of melody and dynamics.” – Thomas Wright
