The Jettison stage is set with the peaceful opening piano chords and orchestral stirrings of “Dive Pt1” before the lift-off commences on “Dive Pt2,” where Friers and Kennedy are joined by their compatriots Chris Wee on drums and Johnny Adger on bass.

Though it was always intended to serve as a life-affirming work full of rapturous energy, these tragedies and hardships brought occasional dashes of melancholy to Jettison, bringing the overall sense of triumph and wonder into greater relief. Jettison was a reaction to the times it exist in, one that evolved and responded to both personal developments and global events, first with the loss of the bands dear friend Andrew Dunbar shortly before Jettison’s live debut and again after subsequent performances were canceled due to the onset of the pandemic in early 2020. As he set to work in early 2018, Friers hoped this ambitious new project would ultimately serve as a counterweight to the tense social climate-a way to “jettison” the anger and strife of the times. “I loved the idea of reverse engineering a score, flipping it on its head, and having Sam create the visual narrative to the music,” Friers says of his initial vision. “I always liked albums and pieces of music that gave you a bigger space to get lost in.” Outside of ASIWYFA Rory is a composer for film and television, he and his bandmate, guitarist Niall Kennedy, had recently composed the score for The Cured (2017), which whetted their appetite for orchestrating string parts and working on a scale that involved recurring melodic themes and long-arc musical developments. “Making a longer form piece of music was something I’d wanted to do for a long time,” Friers says. The initial motivation behind Jettison was simple. Conceived by And So I Watch You From Afar’s guitarist Rory Friers and brought to life by the band, orchestrator Connor O’Boyle, the Arco String Quartet, and visual artist Sam Wiehl, Jettison is a fusion of ASIWYFA’s life-affirming musical acrobatics, the sweeping grandeur of film scores, and the surreal and sublime capabilities of moving pictures. But nothing in their repertoire comes close to the ambition and scale of their latest project-the multimedia long form ensemble piece Jettison. ASIWYFA have continuously introduced new spins on their original sound while simultaneously expanding their sonic palette with every new album, taking in and repurposing everything from African highlife to Irish trad to the odd ball math-rock of the late ‘90s / early ‘00s. Defying the laymen's definition of post punk, post rock and post everything in between they came crashing out of the gate with the big-riff worship and arena-level melodic heroics of their eponymous debut, through to their Art Rock odyssey All Hail Bright Futures and their critically acclaimed genre defying masterpiece The Endless Shimmering.
