Blake is a girl from the cold state of Vermont. John was raised in the hot arid sands of Dubai. They met in Boston and made a record of Blake's songs. They then travelled near and far to play John's songs, and then Blake's again. At last the two moved out west to seek adventure, but sadly parted on a bleak November day. They wrote songs, each in their own place, about their dismay and unhappiness without the other. Their songs said things they hadn't said in person, and when they heard them--together--it all made sense. In fact, life made more sense together. After a while, and having realized this, they became The Submarines. Here is the record they wrote to each other, before during and after the sad days apart.

For the Submarines' Blake Hazard and John Dragonetti, it was love at first take—but the second take is even better. With their debut album Declare A New State, the longtime collaborators have forged a beautiful and sonically inventive record. From the haunted, sing-song buzz of "Peace and Hate" to the swoony pocket symphonies of "Modern Inventions" to the delicately ornamented "The Good Night," Declare A New State is both gorgeously bittersweet pop music and a tribute to the unexpected wonder of a second chance.
