GET BACK

When you're making music, it's incredibly easy to forget about the other things in life that you W love as well.

That's something Austin Getz came to terms with a lot over the past couple of years. Having his band Turnover put on ice because of circumstances beyond their control, he turned his attention to the other things that he enjoyed and others that he would grow to love. He started painting houses and getting to know the people in his local area a bit better. He joined the volunteer fire department to help combat the wildfires in California. He trained to be a distance runner. He went back to school and learned about the magic trees and the Spanish language. He meditated three times a week at a Buddhist dojo. Such an incredible and inspiring array of activities and vocations, all implemented to remind him of what life is all about.

"We had been touring and going at it for years and years, and obviously, when we were suddenly all just at home, it was scary," he remembers.

"But it was more a chance to go back to the basics, like when we started. It's easy with any career, especially with something like art, to get swept up in it, and I do get swept up in the band. But when things shut down, I made sure I was living, and I was living the fullest I could."

Music still played a massive part in this, and Turnover was still at the front of his mind, though. But unlike over the past few years when the band's previous two albums, 2017's 'Good Nature' and 2019's 'Together', were written in between and on tours, there was no timeline or pressure when it came to writing now. There was chance to leave California and visit his brother, drummer Casey Getz, in Virginia Beach and just jam like when they were kids. So rather than feeling like they had to make something, they remembered what it was like to want to make something.

"All the things I had been doing gave me a different appreciation for the band," he says.
