"It gave us a chance to take stock of us and where we were."įrom the trenches of anti-climax, Felt Out was born. "There was this slow dissolution rather than just a cancellation, and we felt so worn out from the momentum loss. "At first, we kept pushing the tour back further into the summer because no one had any idea what was going on," explains Nichols. The story of their title change dates back to April 2020, when the pandemic forced Nichols and Somanath to cancel their first tour.
Their second album, Until I'm Light, arrived April 14 as the pair's first full-length since rebranding to Felt Out. "You're taking on the world as it is, and literally riding life as best as you can rather than trying to twist reality into what you want it to be."Ģ019's Superfluid, released under former name Emme, introduced listeners to the pair's equally ambient and danceable take on synth-pop. "I don't surf, but I relate to it for some reason," says Nichols, an Austin native. Never mind their lack of experience catching waves.
