Dumber and Older

In January 2020 Andy Park and I went out for a drink to talk about making what would become “Dumber and Older” the record that is officially out in the world today. We had used every studio in town making “Keepers” and went to San Francisco together for the John Vanderslice Experience (TM) on Literally Main Street and we were both yearning for a slightly more casual approach. We talked about experimenting with mostly recording at home, and then began bouncing ideas back and forth over dropbox. That would soon become the only way anyone could make a record. The pandemic hit and I got laid off from my job. It was a harsh toke. But I had this little record to get me through. It ended up being surprisingly collaborative, given the circumstance. Every musician I knew was home with nothing to do. If they didn’t have a home recording set up in March they had one by May. We collected little bits and bobs from our remote friends, spent 3 days recording some drums and bass at Studio X that summer, and would occasionally rope someone in to pop by and sing or play something. Andy moved into a new place and built a studio somewhere in there haha. It’s all kind of a blur, trite but true. I knew I was making a really good record, maybe even an especially special record, and that was an exciting feeling. But the process itself is what got me through the strum and drang of the past few years. It showed up as what I needed each day: a purpose. A distraction. A connection to other people. A connection to myself. A reason to be joyful. So today I am feeling grateful for the experience of making it, grateful to the many folks who let me borrow their spirit and sensibility for a few minutes on each song, grateful to everyone who helped me get it out into the world, and of course grateful to those who are listening. I really think it turned out pretty good. Onward! -Eric Anderson 10/14/2022
