Indie 5-0: 5 questions with The Collective Bus
Tumblr media
The Collective Bus, named after the Argentinian double-decker bus Colectivo, are an alternative rock outfit based in Miami, Florida. They have toured across the country with radio-hit songs(Don’t Stop, Fold it Back), opening for various former superstar (or known national headliner) acts. Their music has been best described as ‘rock with an afro-cuban flair’ taking influence from performers like Angelique Kidjo and the DIY scene to bring a unique, high-octane show for anyone to enjoy. They just released their debut single “Take Time” and we got the chance to interview them about it!
1. What is the inspiration behind "Take Time"?
We wrote this in 2019, on tour, when we decided to take a stop in Pittsburgh for a few days before the next show. Here, we find a fantastic guitar shop known as Pittsburgh Guitars. So we’re in the shop, trying out the gear, having a chill afternoon when our guitarist(at the time) Ben plays this sweet descending riff and I’m like “That’s a golden idea. Let’s record it.” Basically made the blueprint for the song right there in the shop. I then wrote all the lyrics in the car once we were back on the road.
About the song itself, for a lot of my work, I really love ambiguity and double meanings, which really take hold of the central theme to “take time”. Where I feel both readings of taking time together or taking time apart are equally valid. Ultimately it’s about two people recognizing their problems to help each other out. Even if it means ending whatever relationship they had before. They can’t just sit. They can’t play pretend. They can only Take Time. The song is available now on Spotify.
2. You are a huge advocate for the mental health community. Do you have any advice or words of wisdom for those struggling right now?
I don't know if I would describe myself as a huge advocate. I mean, it's definitely important and close to my heart, but I'm no politician. I'm also struggling like everyone else in these tense times. I go to therapy. I take anti-depressants. My mental health can leave me in a deep unseated happiness a lot of the time, so it makes sense for it to be such a strong theme in my music. This is a conversation. Personally, what has helped me to combat intrusive thoughts is to ask what does or doesn't serve me. If I recognize that I'm spiraling out wanting to turn my eyes into paper and feed them to a pack of wolves, I try to switch gears. More typical advice I would say is to keep yourself in the present. Operate without expectation. Hopefully that helps someone, I'm here to talk.
3. How has the pandemic impacted your music creation process?
It has led to me making more music than ever before. This is telling of the kind of person I am, but I constructed a spreadsheet of every song I've ever written per year going all the way back to 2011 with 'Let it Go'. The analysis is meaningless so it serves more as a coping mechanism for the extreme self-doubt I have at any given moment. It's hard for me to trust what people say, probably stems back to my gullible childhood. I'm autistic so I can't really parse sarcasm on the subconscious level, leaving me to rely on logical consistency. The numerical abstractions resulting from the spreadsheet formulates a post-truth ideal of "hard" data that I can draw insights from for future songs such as: I have never written a song in B major. About 20% of my music is discussion of mental health, 20% are what I could call 'character songs' where I'm playing an exaggerated version of myself or someone else entirely, obviously the love song covers about 45% with the remaining 15% going to random one off topics. I sit now at the highest record for my songs per year at 50 songs, 138 songs for the whole decade.
4. How has it affected your mental health?
Poorly, like everyone else. I have deeply intrusive thoughts like "I want to rip my body into a complicated set of packages to feed the birds in my inevitable sky burial" or "I want to tear my throat out and squeeze it until all the words I could've said are silenced, preventing me from embarrassing myself any further than I've already have". These come off like ticks(like a flinch) as a result of the anxiety I feel when reliving past events, which started as another coping mechanism to logically deduce how to function better socially. It gives me the insightful awareness to write songs, make jokes, allow for reasonable doubt, but my impulsive nature prevents me from stopping the negative side-effects of that behavior. It feels like I'm trapped in a cage that I designed. A cycle that is doomed to repeat, which fits nicely into a classic definition of insanity. I'm trying my best to be kind to myself and those around me. I don't exist for my sake. I exist for those who want me to be here. I hope that love tethers the reader still to this material plane. Reader, you are loved. You have value. This bad time will pass, like all things do. 5. If there was one message you wanted listeners to take from "Take Time," what would it be?
I can say what I feel it's about like I did in the first question, but ultimately meaning is a retroactive experience. The listener will know what it means to them by the end, decide how they feel, then justify those feelings. I fully believe in this philosophy; otherwise, we would be objective beings with no distinction between bad or good, things would just be. Also, how can there be discourse if the answer was set in stone? And if there isn't discourse, if I didn't force people to sit with their emotions, then from my perspective the song has no value. Just kidding, obviously the real message is to listen to us on Spotify, Apple Music, or wherever else excites you. I'd like music to be my career and I need an audience for that. Join us. Buy our merch. Coalesce. Merge with the almighty capital and rise from the heavens in triumph, heralding The Collective Bus as your mantle. Let us be the horse on which you ride upon to Valhalla you brave warrior. Thank you for reading.

It forces you to trust strangers and to lose sight of all that familiar comfort of home and friends. You are constantly off balance. Nothing is yours except the essential things: air, sleep, dreams, sea, the sky – all things tending towards the eternal or what we imagine of it. – Cesare Pavese • Traveling is a fool’s paradise. – Ralph Waldo Emerson • Traveling is like flirting with life.

We travel to open our hearts and eyes. And we travel, in essence, to become young fools again—to slow time down and get taken in, and fall in love once more. – Ray Bradbury • We travel, initially, to lose ourselves; and we travel, next to find ourselves. – Pico Iyer • We travel, initially, to lose ourselves; and we travel, next to find ourselves. We travel to open our hearts and eyes and learn more about the world than our newspapers will accommodate. We travel to bring what little we can, in our ignorance and knowledge, to those parts of the globe whose riches are differently dispersed. And we travel, in essence, to become young fools again- to slow time down and get taken in, and fall in love once more. – Pico Iyer • We travel, some of us forever, to seek other states, other lives, other souls. – Anais Nin • We wander for distraction, but we travel for fulfillment. – Hilaire Belloc • What you’ve done becomes the judge of what you’re going to do – especially in other people’s minds.

No yesterdays on the road. – William Least Heat-Moon • When one realizes that his life is worthless he either commits suicide or travels.- Edward Dahlberg • When traveling with someone, take large does of patience and tolerance with your morning coffee. – Helen Hayes • When you are everywhere, you are nowhere.

It is the symbol of his liberty – his excessive freedom. He accepts his boredom, when it comes, not merely philosophically, but almost with pleasure. – Aldous Huxley

I travel for travel’s sake. The great affair is to move; to feel the needs and hitches of our life more nearly; to come down off this feather-bed of civilisation, and find the globe granite underfoot and strewn with cutting flints. – Robert Louis Stevenson • For the born traveller, travelling is a besetting vice.

Speed freak faster than a speedin’ bullet, slow down. If I don’t, I might just lose it, locked up. You’ve got me honey, locked up under heavy brakin’, yeah. You know I’ve got to hang on, drive too fast, I might be last. – Jay Kay • I love to travel, but hate to arrive. – Albert Einstein • I never travel without my diary. One should always have something sensational to read in the train. – Oscar Wilde • I see my path, but I don’t know where it leads. Not knowing where I’m going is what inspires me to travel it. – Rosalia de Castro • I travel around the world constantly promoting my projects and endorsing products. Yes, I do get paid to go to parties; in fact, I’m the person who started the whole trend of paid appearances. But when you see me at a party, I’m always working or promoting something. – Paris Hilton • I travel light. I think the most important thing is to be in a good mood and enjoy life, wherever you are. – Diane von Furstenberg • I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel’s sake. The great affair is to move.- Robert Louis Stevenson • I traveled a good deal all over the world, and I got along pretty good in all these foreign countries, for I have a theory that it’s their country and they got a right to run it like they want to. – Will Rogers • I wanna hang a map of the world in my house.

Schulz • In traveling, a man must carry knowledge with him, if he would bring home knowledge. – Samuel Johnson • In travelling I shape myself betimes to idleness And take fools’ pleasure – George Eliot • It is not fit that every man should travel; it makes a wise man better, and a fool worse. – William Hazlitt • Let your memory be your travel bag. – Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn • Life is a journey that must be traveled no matter how bad the roads and accommodations. – Oliver Goldsmith • Like all great travellers, I have seen more than I remember, and remember more than I have seen. – Benjamin Disraeli Live, travel, adventure, bless, and don’t be sorry. – Jack Kerouac • Man is an artifact designed for space travel. He is not designed to remain in his present biologic state any more than a tadpole is designed to remain a tadpole. – William S. Burroughs My home is in Heaven. I’m just traveling through this world. – Billy Graham • Never trust anything you read in a travel article. – Dave Barry • No one realizes how beautiful it is to travel until he comes home and rests his head on his old, familiar pillow. – Lin Yutang • NOT I – NOT ANYONE else, can travel that road for you, You must travel it for yourself. – Walt Whitman • Once the travel bug bites there is no known antidote, and I know that I shall be happily infected until the end of my life – Michael Palin • Once the travel bug bites, there is no known antidote. – Michael Palin • Once you have traveled, the voyage never ends, but is played out over and over again in the quietest chambers. The mind can never break off from the journey. – Pat Conroy • One of the great things about travel is you find out how many good, kind people there are. – Edith Wharton • One travels more usefully when alone, because he reflects more. – Thomas Jefferson • Only by going alone in silence, without baggage, can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness. All other travel is mere dust and hotels and baggage and chatter. – John Muir • People travel to faraway places to watch, in fascination, the kind of people they ignore at home. – Dagobert D. Runes • People travel to wonder at the height of mountains, at the huge waves of the sea, at the long courses of rivers, at the vast compass of the ocean, at the circular motion of the stars; and they pass by themselves without wondering. – Saint Augustine • People who don’t travel cannot have a global view, all they see is what’s in front of them. Those people cannot accept new things because all they know is where they live. – Martin Yan • Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends. – Maya Angelou • Please be a traveler, not a tourist. Try new things, meet new people, and look beyond what’s right in front of you.

Chesterton • The traveler was active; he went strenuously in search of people, of adventure, of experience. The tourist is passive; he expects interesting things to happen to him.

Boorstin • The trouble with travelling back later on is that you can never repeat the same experience. – Michael Palin • The true traveler is he who goes on foot, and even then, he sits down a lot of the time. – Sidonie Gabrielle Colette • The use of traveling is to regulate imagination by reality. – Samuel Johnson • The use of travelling is to regulate imagination by reality, and instead of thinking how things may be, to see them as they are. – Samuel Johnson • The value of your travels does not hinge on how many stamps you have in your passport when you get home — and the slow nuanced experience of a single country is always better than the hurried, superficial experience of forty countries. – Rolf Potts • The whole object of travel is not to set foot on foreign land; it is at last to set foot on one’s own country as a foreign land. – Gilbert K. Chesterton • The wise traveler learns not to repeat successes but tries new places all the time. – Paul Fussell • The world is a country which nobody ever yet knew by description; one must travel through it one’s self to be acquainted with it. – Lord Chesterfield • There are no foreign lands.

Chesterton • Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or we find it not. – Ralph Waldo Emerson • To move, to breathe, to fly, to float, To gain all while you give, To roam the roads of lands remote, To travel is to live. – Hans Christian Andersen • To my mind, the greatest reward and luxury of travel is to be able to experience everyday things as if for the first time, to be in a position in which almost nothing is so familiar it is taken for granted. – Bill Bryson • To travel hopefully is a better thing than to arrive. – Robert Louis Stevenson • To travel is to discover that everyone is wrong about other countries. – Aldous Huxley • To travel is to live. – Hans Christian Andersen • To travel is to take a journey into yourself. – Danny Kaye • Too often travel, instead of broadening the mind, merely lengthens the conversations. – Elizabeth Drew • Tourists don’t know where they’ve been, travelers don’t know where they’re going. – Paul Theroux • Travel becomes a strategy for accumulating photographs. – Susan Sontag • Travel brings power and love back into your life. – Rumi • Travel can be one of the most rewarding forms of introspection. – Lawrence Durrell • Travel does what good novelists also do to the life of everyday, placing it like a picture in a frame or a gem in its setting, so that the intrinsic qualities are made more clear. Travel does this with the very stuff that everyday life is made of, giving to it the sharp contour and meaning of art. – Freya Stark • Travel is a fools paradise. – Ralph Waldo Emerson • Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one’s lifetime. – Mark Twain • Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness. – Mark Twain • Travel is the art form available to Everyman. You sit in the coffee shop in a strange city and nobody knows who you are, or cares, and so you shed your checkered past and your motley credentials and you face the day unarmed … And onward we go and some day in the distant future, we will stop and turn around in astonishment to see all the places we’ve been and the heroes we were. – Garrison Keillor • Travel is the frivolous part of serious lives, and the serious part of frivolous ones. – Sophie Swetchine • Travel is the most private of pleasures.

It forces you to trust strangers and to lose sight of all that familiar comfort of home and friends. You are constantly off balance. Nothing is yours except the essential things: air, sleep, dreams, sea, the sky – all things tending towards the eternal or what we imagine of it. – Cesare Pavese • Traveling is a fool’s paradise. – Ralph Waldo Emerson • Traveling is like flirting with life. It’s like saying, ‘I would stay and love you, but I have to go; this is my station. – Lisa St. Aubin de Terán • Traveling is seeing; it is the implicit that we travel by.- Cynthia Ozick • Traveling tends to magnify all human emotions. – Peter Høeg • Travelling is the ruin of all happiness. There’s no looking at a building here after seeing Italy. – Fanny Burney • Unusual travel suggestions are dancing lessons from God. – Kurt Vonnegut We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best we can find in our travels is an honest friend. – Robert Louis Stevenson • We can be said only to fulfil our destiny in the place that gave us birth. I should on this account like well enough to spend the whole of my life in travelling abroad, if I could anywhere borrow another life to spend afterwards at home! – William Hazlitt • We must go beyond textbooks, go out into the bypaths and untrodden depths of the wilderness and travel and explore and tell the world the glories of our journey.- John Hope Franklin • We travel for romance, we travel for architecture, and we travel to be lost. – Ray Bradbury • We travel, in essence, to become young fools again – to slow time down and get taken in, and fall in love once more. – Pico Iyer • We travel, initially, to lose ourselves, and we travel, next, to find ourselves. We travel to open our hearts and eyes. And we travel, in essence, to become young fools again—to slow time down and get taken in, and fall in love once more. – Ray Bradbury • We travel, initially, to lose ourselves; and we travel, next to find ourselves. – Pico Iyer • We travel, initially, to lose ourselves; and we travel, next to find ourselves. We travel to open our hearts and eyes and learn more about the world than our newspapers will accommodate. We travel to bring what little we can, in our ignorance and knowledge, to those parts of the globe whose riches are differently dispersed. And we travel, in essence, to become young fools again- to slow time down and get taken in, and fall in love once more. – Pico Iyer • We travel, some of us forever, to seek other states, other lives, other souls. – Anais Nin • We wander for distraction, but we travel for fulfillment. – Hilaire Belloc • What you’ve done becomes the judge of what you’re going to do – especially in other people’s minds. When you’re traveling, you are what you are right there and then. People don’t have your past to hold against you. No yesterdays on the road. – William Least Heat-Moon • When one realizes that his life is worthless he either commits suicide or travels.- Edward Dahlberg • When traveling with someone, take large does of patience and tolerance with your morning coffee. – Helen Hayes • When you are everywhere, you are nowhere. When you are somewhere, you are everywhere. – Rumi • When you travel, remember that a foreign country is not designed to make you comfortable. It is designed to make its own people comfortable. – Clifton Fadiman • Wherever you go becomes a part of you somehow. – Anita Desai • You do not travel if you are afraid of the unknown, you travel for the unknown, that reveals you with yourself. – Ella Maillart • You get educated by traveling.- Solange Knowles • You know more of a road by having traveled it than by all the conjectures and descriptions in the world. – William Hazlitt • Your true traveller finds boredom rather agreeable than painful. It is the symbol of his liberty – his excessive freedom. He accepts his boredom, when it comes, not merely philosophically, but almost with pleasure. – Aldous Huxley
