Unlike the box, to create the lid we'll be glueing the sides to the inside of the heart.Take one of the side pieces and on the tab cut vertical slits up to the fold line, once again keeping them less than a centimeter apart. If you'd like the bottom of the box to look more polished, trace another copy of the heart box pattern and glue it over the top. Continue until you get to the point of the heart, where you'll need to put glue on the end of the other side and press the two sides together.Hot glue the tab we created to the inside of the heart, making sure the edge of the side piece is pressed against the fold of the tab we created.įor the rest of the box, do exactly the same as before, where we put the glue on the bottom of the heart and pressed the side in place.Place this at the top of the heart, so this tab we've just created is on the inside of the heart and the tab with the "fringe" is on the outside bottom of the heart.Fold it backwards on the line, then cut off the bottom tab up to the fold line.Take the second box side piece and score a vertical fold line about 3/4" from the left side (with the tab side down.).Put glue on the bottom of the heart, and hold it in place until it is secure. Bend this on the fold around the point of the heart.You can use a ruler or even the edge of the pattern piece to help you score a straight line.It needs to be a straight and parallel to the end of the side piece as possible. You'll need to create a score line straight out from the point of the heart.
This time out we’re like, ‘Let’s go further in that direction and see how far we can take it,’ so it’s going to be interesting. “It’s, like, R&B and soul but we can really get rockin’. “And just witnessing the industry in a whole other way definitely inspired me to go for the sound I’ve been hearing in my head for a long time.”Ĭon Brio gets back to touring this week, including a “dream come true” headlining debut at The Fillmore in San Francisco and mixing West Coast, Canadian and European shows throughout the summer - with more to be added in the near future. “Of course it’s a reflection of seeing so many amazing bands and artists around the world deliver their performances,” he says. For this one it was more intentional to add more of a contemporary, modern aesthetic, more of a refined vocal production and more layerings of sonics and synthesizers.” Touring the world twice also had an impact on how Con Brio approached Explorer. The idea is ‘What can we create to inspire us to face life head-on?’ ( Paradise) was raw We owned that it was our first album. “This one is a really intentional diving into the love and liberation aspect that I took from that event and every other event that transpired. “ Paradise was inspired by the death of my father,” McCarter says. This time, however, it comes from a different perspective. And I feel like we have some of that same resilience they possessed in their performances, if not necessarily the same way.”Ĭon Brio recorded Explorer in San Francisco in San Francisco and Los Angeles with producer Derek Fuhrmann, and while the tone is buoyant and joyous, McCarter and company also embrace socio-political issues as they did on 2016’s Paradise. I loved ‘Black Hole Sun.’ I loved Chester Bennington I loved his voice. “Those were people I was listening to growing up. “I really feel like we’ve honored the life of not just Kurt Cobain but also Chris Cornell and Chester Bennington,” he explains. It served us well.”Īnd, McCarter hopes, the song also serves Cobain and others in the same way. But after (‘Heart-Shaped Box’) we were able to really dial in the writing process a little bit more. We were touring a whole lot at that time and it’s hard to find time to really get seven people in a room to pump out the hits. “Right after that we wrote a few more songs to propel our writing process in a positive way. “We had a day off and I thought of a way I wanted to remake it and we came up with that (version) within two or three hours,” McCarter tells Billboard.
