00:00What is up? I'm Ezra, this is Dan, my drummer slash guitarist slash everything. We are on

00:17tour with Brayden Bales right now, promoting the single we just dropped together called

00:21Glass House. Yeah, let's check out the van. Normally we have Zach, who is our TM, drive

00:28the car, apart from a couple of times where Brayden took it upon himself to drive. After

00:33about 30 minutes, he was like, yeah, I'm not doing this every time. But yeah, we just basically

00:38posted a chill, listened to some music, hang out in the back. We actually spent a lot of

00:42the hours with no music and just talking, which was actually kind of calming. It was kind of

00:46pleasant. It was nice. Up here is Matt, Brayden's drummer and like head of house. Yeah, like

00:54his MD. His MD drummer guy up here. And then it's normally, we just kind of bounce around,

00:59move, shift around in the back. I think it's just kind of like, normally the driver will

01:04have a playlist. The driver has it going for the most part, but everyone's just like shouting

01:07out. We'll just shout out, yo, play this next. And then we'll just go to that, you know.

01:11Very mixed genres of music. Everything from rap to opera to classical to rock to, I don't

01:20know, reggaeton. We keep it interesting. We keep it interesting in here. The last show

01:27we went to, some of these were from Columbus. Some of them were from New York. A bunch of

01:31bracelets that people made me that I love so very much. So thank you if you're seeing

01:34this and you made them for me. I love them. Now these peanut M&Ms, I actually had beef with

01:39these peanut M&Ms. Serious beef with them. Because me and Dan were trying to get popcorn

01:44out the vending machine and it kept getting stuck. And then finally, the time we were supposed

01:48to get the popcorn, we clicked the right button. And they gave us peanut M&Ms and not popcorn.

01:52But Matt ended up beating them. So shout out, Matt. You made our purchase. Not a waste of

01:56money. There's still a couple left in there.

01:59All right. Home sweet home. This is where we reside. Sometimes I'll be up here with Brayden

02:09chilling. Sometimes I'll be in the back kind of passing out, being asleep.

02:12I try to ride here as often as possible.

02:14Dan's just kind of quiet in the back, you know, taking up as little space as possible.

02:19But yeah, have fun. Some chewy bars. Strawberries. Doritos. No, no, no. And a lot of electrolyte

02:27drinks. That's basically what we'd be down back here.

02:29A lot of Ricolas.

02:31A lot of Ricolas.

02:33I'd say it really bounces around. A lot of the time, it's like me or Brayden editing

02:36videos on our phone. Listening to music, hanging out. Or a lot of the time, we like to

02:42jokes, riddles, you know, would you rather questions. Just anything. I don't know.

02:49Like, would you rather have to zipline everywhere or paraglide everywhere? You know, like stupid

02:56stuff like that. And then we'll spend like 30 minutes debating.

02:58What's your answer?

02:59All right. Put your answer in the comments. Let us know what you would pick.

03:01I know paragliding seems like it would be more fun, but I'm just picking zipline because

03:06I wouldn't have to carry around the paraglider at all times. You know, that seems like a

03:10kind of a schlep, but you can definitely have more fun paragliding. All right, that's enough.

03:15Brayden, surprisingly, likes to sit in the middle because he wants a place to like lean forward

03:20and move around. He's a very, very active dude.

03:22He's always standing up and like randomly like just look over and he has no shirt on.

03:27Yeah.

03:27And you look back and like he's fully clothed with a little arm. I don't know when he has to

03:30Yeah, we're not sure.

03:31The piss bottles are under the seat. So we've got a couple of those filled up. We're collecting

03:36them, you know. See, this is definitely real electrolytes and that's what that is. Fruit

03:42punch.

03:43So this is the worst seat in the house because it doesn't lean back at all, but I will

03:47willingly take this seat a lot because it just gives me space to move around. You know,

03:51I get a good view of everybody's beautiful faces. Brayden, Jake, Matt, Zach, Dan.

03:56I get to talk to everybody at once, be a social character, you know, it's always good.

04:00I just feel like making these drives fun is what's most important. You know, we all hang

04:04out with each other and we talk. Well, yeah, this tour is really cool because Brayden's

04:08like one of my closest friends like in real life. So we would hang out on a regular basis

04:12regardless. So it just makes it a lot of fun to do this road trip with him and the crew.

04:15Welcome to my corner of the van. This is where I reside. I do a lot of sleeping, a lot of

04:22listening to music, laughing at jokes that they're constantly making. Sometimes Ezra will

04:29sit here though because this one leans back a little bit. This one is like propped up and

04:33kind of sucks.

04:34We'll get nice and cuddled up in there, you know.

04:36For the most part, I just kind of knock out kind of like this. I've been wearing this trench

04:39coat every day. It keeps me nice and warm.

04:41My dumb ass forgot my puffer jacket in New York, so I've been freezing cold. Chicago,

04:47Columbus were not pleasant to me. The people were, but the weather, no. Not at all.

04:51All right, well, welcome. This is...

04:54Oh, yeah.

04:55Can you look at me, man?

04:56Right, down here.

04:57Down here.

04:58This is...

04:58So, yeah.

04:59Almost broke into a bus. We were in New York parking outside my house in the Bronx and

05:04a branch fell on the door and knocked this whole piece off. But look at our beautiful TM

05:09Zach taped it all back up. So, no damage done. I'm going to get a little bit of damage done,

05:14but not too much damage done. I want to say like 90% of this stuff is Brayden's. I have

05:21this suitcase full of birch, which I basically ran out of. I'm getting more in LA though.

05:26My backpack.

05:28We got our Pelican right here along with this arm.

05:30This is practically our whole show.

05:31Yeah, besides these breakables.

05:33Yeah, symbols, that, snare drum, bar.

05:36And we share drums, so all we need is breakables and a spare snare just in case.

05:40But yeah, Dan switches halfway through the set from drums to acoustic and then back to

05:44drums. So, we basically have everything in here. Keep it interesting. All the shows run

05:49from Dan's computer. Just set in Ableton. But yeah, I've been having the time of my life

05:53on this tour. I'm so thankful for Brayden for bringing me on it. And I can't wait to get

05:57back on the road again. Thank you to Digital Tour Bus for interviewing us. Had fun.

06:01Love from Ezra and Dan. I don't know why I just talked to myself by the third person.

06:06That was super strange. Peace.
