Can’t believe it’s been 10 years since we released our album, Tornado. Thank you for loving and continuing to love these songs. Hearing you sing them back to us at shows will never get old. Happy birthday Tornado! https://t.co/CGzFmDBGTt pic.twitter.com/a6NehAbuUd

“It’s felt like a change in the air for the band. You know, there’s that reference in the song, ‘Tornado’ — change of weather — and it’s kind of felt that way for us. We’ve had an amazing journey as a band, but this has felt like a new day and it’s akin to a storm in a really cool way. It’s been overwhelming and outrageous and we just thought, ‘Tornado.’ I mean, that fits how we feel, what it feels like in the air around this band right now.”
