Free Throw

Bio

With Piecing It Together, their fourth full-length album, Free Throw grapple with hard  truths. After three albums and a decade of hard work, including countless performances  worldwide, the members — Cory Castro, Lawrence Warner, Justin Castro, Jake Hughes, and Kevin Garcia — have a fresh perspective on life. The band is through obsessing over  what comes next and romanticizing the moments that have already passed. Instead,  Free Throw is making music about the present and how seeking balance in our lives is  far more meaningful work than the endless pursuit of whatever you deem to be  ‘enough.’ 

“It’s very hard when for a band like us to take time off,” drummer Kevin Garcia explains.  “We go home to write and record, then we go on tour. Rinse and repeat, you know?  When we got into this writing process, we stopped feeling like we existed in a mold or  on a path that Free Throw is supposed to keep going on with our contemporaries. We  stopped worrying about what tour we may be fighting for next or what someone else  does. We were just writing songs that we really like writing. ” 

Throughout the album’s twelve tracks, Piecing It Together finds the men of Free Throw  abandoning childhood notions of success and happiness through a thorough exploration  of personal fulfillment. It’s about reaching the heights that once felt impossible and  everything that comes after. How no matter what we do or where we go, we must  continue to wake up and find the strength to keep on keeping on despite everything we  tell ourselves about ourselves. 

Piecing It Together is an exploration of self-acceptance, and Free Throw invites everyone  to join.
