A marked evolution occurred this time around, as everything expanded sonically.
The band holed up in Robert Lang Studios with producer Todd Burman and began crafting what would become their sophomore effort, Rabbit Hole. "It validated all of the blood, sweat, and tears we put into this, and we got the chance to do things the right way." "They believed in what we do," the singer affirms. That same night the label offered Lotus Crush a deal. CaviGold Records contacted the band about performing a special reunion one-off at the iconic Robert Lang Studios-the site of classic albums from Foo Fighters, Nirvana, Alice In Chains, and more. It just wasn't the right time back then." We didn't have a label or any support the first time around, so it wasn't able to sustain itself. "We were on the cusp of something special," explains Terry. Still, Lotus Crush loomed in the back of their collective consciousness. As Peter and Scott returned to Candlebox, Terry got a call to join Season 3 of NBC's The Voice, eventually becoming a runner-up on the show. Unforgettable gigs at SXSW followed, and the group began to build a significant fan base of its own. The musicians, now known as Lotus Crush, recorded their first effort, 2011's Half Light Morning. On a whim in 2010, he reached out to Peter about doing a project together. Invited to support multiplatinum alternative rock luminaries Candlebox on tour, he forged an instant bond with Candlebox's six-stringer Peter Klett and drummer Scott Mercado, sharing a love for Pink Floyd, The Verve, and other British heavyweights.Īfter Driveblind disbanded, Terry settled in New Orleans. In 2006, Scotland-born Terry McDermott was fronting Driveblind who just dropped their self-titled major label debut.
In fact, a conversation about favorite artists actually served as the genesis for Lotus Crush. It's the ultimate bridge, bringing people together regardless of background and experiences.
