Seeing the world is an eye-opening experience—especially if you grew up in the tiny town of Draper, Utah. It’s no wonder Meg & Dia’s new album, Here, Here and Here, paints a portrait of what life has been like as they’ve toured relentlessly for the past two and a half years in support of their 2006 debut. The hard-working bandmates pride themselves on the fact that they are responsible for all of their own material. Everything—from the lyrics, to the guitar lines, to the string arrangements—is 100% a product of the band. If there’s a consistent theme throughout the new album, it’s that life doesn’t come with instructions or a map. “We wanted to create the feeling of progress, even though we’re not done yet…that we’re trying to get somewhere while still having a little more way to go,” Meg explains.
