  • Coming home from L.A., it's just such a nice contrast, you know?

  • - This is Stella. Whoo. - Stella? Nice. Fresh eggs.

  • Just to be able to kind of put my phone down

  • and hang out in the woods and make some music with my family,

  • and kind of oasis away from L.A.

  • ( indistinct chatter )

  • ( vocalizing )

  • - Yeah. - We did a little busking in Aspen, Colorado, as a family

  • when Svea was, like, this tall.

  • And she was the secret weapon.

  • The little-er they are,

  • then all of a sudden people open up their purses.

  • My dad's a musician, so from a super young age,

  • any time we were in the car on road trips

  • or just sitting around,

  • he would be teaching us all

  • different parts of songs.

  • It's a lot better than,

  • you know, sitting around and watching TV.

  • ( vocalizing )

  • - I got some gold. - Whoa.

  • - The Jonah drawer. - I don't even know.

  • - I loved that age. - ( overlapping chatter )

  • - "When the Daylight's Gone" EP release tour. - There it is.

  • - Oh, that's the first merch. - Oh, yeah! Wow!

  • I'm not sure about this little book you made.

  • It looks like you're practicing swear words.

  • - The first one is just a big ass. - Swear words.

  • Swear words. He went for it.

  • I was figuring it out.

  • This week we are back in L.A.

  • We got "Slow Down" coming soon,

  • which is the next single off of our album.

  • We're doing "Good Morning America,"

  • which is insane, on the day of the album release.

  • And I'm just excited to get back to L.A.,

  • see the boys again.

  • Whenever I'm with Lav, I never realize, like,

  • how hard it is to say good-bye at the end,

  • and then it sucks.

  • It's Mama! All right, Lav.

  • - Da-da's leaving. - Say bye.

  • - That's us. - I love you.

  • Say bye.

  • - ( cackling ) - ( indistinct chatter )

  • It gets me every time, that laugh right here.

  • ( cackling )

  • Tomorrow, we start working again.

  • So we land at 10:30 and then I wake up

  • and go straight to work.

  • Right back in it.

  • - Yeah. - Oh, you got a new boy?

  • I had to get the purple one, bro.

  • Like, your birthday present to yourself?

  • - Yeah. - Or can I claim it and this is my gift to you?

  • I mean, you could pay for it if you want.

  • Oh, okay. Never mind.

  • Oh, she's sensitive.

  • ( playing guitar )

  • - Oh. - What did you want to cut again?

  • Oh, "Slow Down," v.1.

  • I want to rehit the...

  • ♪ I've been trying to ♪

  • kind of give it a little more something.

  • - I feel that. - ( music playing )

  • - I think I did it like that. - You did.

  • I remember that being a note the first time around.

  • ( music continues )

  • - Yeah. Yeah. - Where you're just falling off?

  • - I need to hit that. - Coby.

  • - Coby. - The master producer.

  • Ruff.

  • ♪ I miss the way ♪

  • ♪ You looked at me before ♪

  • ♪ I left New York ♪

  • Man, "Slow Down,"

  • something about it is just magic.

  • I feel like in this album,

  • you really can feel who we are in the music.

  • ♪ Way that I feel when I'm with you ♪

  • ♪ Oh, I'd do anything to save you ♪

  • You're watching the first rough cut

  • of the "Slow Down" video.

  • - Let's do it. - ( music playing )

  • All right. Let's see it.

  • - Oh, no way. - This is dope.

  • ( music continues )

  • I want it to go to the car instead.

  • - Okay. - 107, 108.

  • - Yeah, 107. - I love how, like,

  • - you fall in and then-- - Yeah, that's dope.

  • - ( music continues ) - ( indistinct chatter )

  • - Honestly, I love it. - Same with this part.

  • ( music continues )

  • - I love all this. I love all these shots. - That shot is so sick.

  • - That shot's so good. - Oh, it's so good.

  • I mean, I wouldn't even touch some of this.

  • What if you just let it play out from this shot?

  • - Yeah. - Instead of switching.

  • - And then-- - We could do that.

  • ( overlapping chatter )

  • Great first cut.

  • For the first time, I feel like that performance

  • is gonna actually do a lot for the song.

  • - Yeah. - Because it looked so good.

  • - Yeah. - Yeah, that was dope.

  • Let's go.

  • Yeah, like, when we were coming out with "Fallin',"

  • it felt so like, that's a song for a live show.

  • But "Slow Down," it's the one that actually feels like anybody could enjoy.

  • - You know? - We were at the music video shoot and one guy was like,

  • "Dude, I go to so many music video shoots, but, like, this song?

  • Never got sick of it this whole time."

  • - I was like, "That's cool." - Dang! That's dope.

  • I love how the video is us just having a great time.

  • Like, we haven't had a video where we just, like, have a great day.

  • - Have a good time. - All of our smiles and shit in the video even

  • - It's actually genuine. - And you can feel it through the screen.

  • Dude, we were there from 6:30 AM till 11:30 PM,

  • and we all walked away like, "Whoa, that was a fun day!"

  • No, no, no, no, no.

  • Wait, let's call him. Let's call Randy.

  • - Give us your best explanation. - What is happening, man?

  • Here's the problem. It's going to leak.

  • - And if it leaks, okay... - I would not like that.

  • ...over the holidays, it will ( bleep ) everything up.

  • If we come out with it now, will that hurt the shot of it picking up in January

  • or will it still be going hard then?

  • They're saying the opposite. They think it's gonna help.

  • Plus they're gonna waterfall "Slow Down" into "Lotus Inn."

  • - Okay. - Which will give "Lotus Inn" a huge pop.

  • Then in that case, "Slow Down" would come out-- what was it?

  • - Wednesday night at midnight. - Wait, tomorrow?

  • - Yeah. - Tomorrow night?

  • - Oh, my God, man. - Aah!

  • - We can't have days like this, man. - We cannot.

  • - This is just too much shit going on. - We gotta think through--

  • all the shit that we thought we had a month to do,

  • we gotta think about how to do it in a ( bleep ) day.

  • I hate how this is happening on what's ( bleep ) supposed to be our biggest song.

  • The only thing I can think about is it was meant to be.

  • - It has to be. - I guess.

  • I'm telling you, too, that TikTok thing,

  • I really think could be good.

  • "One month until the album.

  • Surprise! We're dropping--"

  • That could be part of the message even.

  • We do that, we would literally have to upload it today.

  • ( music playing )

  • Yeah, but it feels a little, like, boring.

  • Okay. We should be more in the face of the camera, maybe?

  • - What if we were just, like, selfies? - Try it, try it, try it.

  • I mean, uh, that's better.

  • What if you set it up on the wall and then we all just, like, hop in?

  • - Yeah, do a twisty jump. - Yeah, let's try that.

  • - Yeah. - ( music playing )

  • - That's cool. - Oh!

  • - It's gonna be viral. - That's dope.

  • Man, this is my favorite song on this album.

  • I know our fans are gonna love it.

  • ( music playing )

  • We're not able to tour right now,

  • so the label's been setting up

  • these fan meet and greets via Zoom.

  • Sorry. We're running a little late today.

  • - We have a lot of stuff going on. - It's been a busy day.

  • Nice to meet you. We miss you!

  • - I miss you, too. - Are you excited for our album?

  • - Yes, I'm really excited. - She's excited!

  • ( cheering )

  • - I wanted to say something to Zach. - ( murmuring )

  • - I love you. - I love you more.

  • Tomorrow's gonna be a good day for all of us.
