about

The Bishop Boys' debut full-length album. The eleven-song work is the duos most ambitious yet, and pays tribute to their hometown of Windsor. The pair began writing the songs that would eventually become this album when they were in high school back in 2012. Spanning a whopping 9 years of their lives during some of their most formative years, this album is also a “coming of age” story, covering themes of unrequited love, carefree summer nights, and the sobering inevitability of growing up.
