The bond of blood is a unique vessel to contain a shared mindset, aesthetic, and mission. Lennon and Christian Nichols have selected 5 songs from an arsenal of 70, offering the very best of their collaboration.
“Songs For Film” is an EP, but is massive in scope as a multimedia experience that pairs with a visual element that feels as close to a bygone era as their music does.
