"'No Worries' was not meant to be so experimental. In fact, when we play it live, it is a pretty rocking pop song. I kinda lost myself one night singing all these layers in my closet. I decided to add strings and make it something more about voices than percussion." LIC RYNO
Recorded at home in LIC, NY from June 2011 - April 2012
Ryan Roger O'Toole - organ, voices, electric guitar, midi-strings, midi-horns
