Founders Luca Lovisetto and Samuel Regan met in Bologna, the former a native of the city and the latter a math student studying abroad. Their first songs took shape in a small rented room at the beginning of Via Mazzini and were recorded in a flurry of late spiring nights. Sam - after spending a year in Bologna - then returned to America at the end of march: Luca dropped him off at the airport, keeping a handful full of songs to remember their friendship. These songs would eventually become the duo’s self titled EP. In the summer of 2015, the two friends met again, this time in California. They spent the afternoons of July and August closed in the childhood bed room of Sam to write and record, and in a months time they had finished their debut album, Vacation. The album was released April 30th, 2016 on La Barberia Records. In the summer of 2016 the duo recorded a new EP titled “Ciao for Now,” which will be released by the end of the year.

On the Screen
Baseball Gregg Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Golden lights they spell your name dazzling me with your fame
Your face before my eyes
Oooh, I could die

Moving out this tired town
Moving on I'm wayward bound Hollywood's the place for me
Oooh, just wait and see
It's the way it's gotta be

Feels like a dream
This life on the screen (life on the screen) and I don't care what they say
It's the only way to play
Dream life of living on the screen
Golden lights they spell my name
But I'm oh so filled with shame
My face before your eyes
Oooh, I could die
Moving out this tired mind
Drugs are strong hold my demise Hollywood's the death of me

Oh just wait and see
It's the way it's gotta be

I am addicted to this album now. So poignant and sadly beautiful that it reminds me of the bygone-untraceable past in which I once swam as freely as a fish flew as boldly as birds and also failed as bitterly as a freshman in love
