Petter Bergander about the music: «We want to give people a crazy, exciting experience of life and zest for life. ”Watershed” is an album sprung from a troubled world and time. When I wrote the songs, I thought about events in life that can threaten to cut divides between friends or in the family, and conflicts within ourselves. The music became a way to regain the joy and the art.»
