Motion And Picture is a cinematic soundscape of honest lyrical introspection and reactive

abrasion, a personal timespan of disillusionment, resolve, and return of hope. Waves of cascading textures blur the sonic lines between synthesizers and guitars a la My Bloody Valentine and Slowdive as Shawn Rios's atypical rhythms anchor the songs while Brian McSweeney

ascends beyond Andre Miller, Patrick Riley, and Dmitri Rakhubas's expanding colors.

What began as a chance encounter on an airplane between McSweeney and Rios 22 years ago

grew into a decades-long friendship which ignited the inevitable musical partnership that formed

Chicago's MIIRRORS. They reverse-engineered the usual process of becoming a band by

prioritizing album creation over live performance while at their own pace, morphing the duo into

a cohesive quintet of seasoned multi-instrumentalists along the way­ veterans Rakhuba, Miller,

and Riley completed the lineup, and they evolved the collective sound quickly, momentarily

trading the stage for the tracking room.

While recording, the group began self-releasing singles just two months before the pandemic

took its toll on the music community, but not before the public took notice of their imagined

version of Jeff Buckley's rare 1997 four-track demo
