Takes off at 8 min with echoing keys that trail behind the guitar and lead to spare space. Slow-rolling drums at 9.5 min invite guitar effects and protracted synthy bass tones. Chase Bliss Mood guitar emerges and the band gloms on. Dani knows how to stretch things via various keyboard effects, then corrals the improv with more soothing tones, e.g. 13 min, while Mike and Jake keep pushing for another minute. |

Percussive guitar riff and snappy drums after 5 min. Moog accents around 7 min as the guitar turns stretchy. Active drums and peaky-adjacent play at 9 min. Mike firmly in the mix as the vibe intensifies. Dani synth accents from 10-11 min are a big value add, as always. Silky move to One Stop Shop. |

Energetically and organically grows peaky after 7 min. Organ comes in before 9 min and combines with Jake’s lead lines to send the jam into a froth. Returns to Tired From Waiting melody after 10 min. |

Big Thief cover |
|
Engagingly, enjoyably woozy early, after 2 min. Swirl of Moog tones as guitar steps forward with percussive, delicate lines, e.g 5 min. Patient, mature listening and exploration. Alex imbues momentum at 9 min. Dani synth play is all-star caliber, e.g. 10-11 min. Jake, well-incorporated into the lush sonic fold, pokes toward some peaks at 12 min, then rides the wave the band has created after 13 min. Jam is really swinging at 14 min, and the next few minutes are a joyful team celebration. |

with Queen's Gambit, Black Water (Doobie Brothers) teases |
|
Clav-tinged and plucky jam emerges at 4 min, turns beefy thanks to Mike and Alex, but remains patient. Begins to roll along with momentum at 6 min. Punchy-yet-fluid play follows. Circular guitar licks after 8 min stays grounded, then eventually brightens, with a Queen’s Gambit tease bubbling up by 10 min. Upbeat, peaky groove at 11 min eventually returns to Queen’s Gambit-adjacent space before sneaking into a Black Water (Doobie Brothers) tease at 12 min. Back to Second Step vocals by 14 min. |

Grateful Dead cover, with Terrapin Station (Grateful Dead), Birdland (Weather Report) teases |
|
Begins gently at 4 min, brief Terrapin Station tease after 5 min. Toggles from beautiful and delicate to a percussive conversation after 7 min. Momentum at 9 min, with nimble guitar licks and rolling drums as Mike thickens the stew. Constrained energy blooms into a Birdland tease before 12 min, then rolls into a rhythmic motif that sees Jake racing up and down the neck amidst lush organ. Stop-start jamming after 14 min before a full-band dash that culminates in a peak reentry to Cassidy terrain near 17 min. |
