Andrew and Yonatan met years ago, and had an immediate chemistry. Andrew approached Yonatan about recording bass on his record, and was met with a high level of enthusiasm. Although only needed for one day in the studio, Yonatan was there for 10 days out of the process. Producer Evan Frankfort, created a tone and a vibe that received and respected everyone’s ideas, making it feel like a team effort. Over the next few years, Yonatan began performing with Andrew around the world, realizing very quickly that the level of intensity brought forth by this individual matched his own. This partnership created a large amount of momentum and at times friction. Andrew says, “working with you is great! A lot of things got done because of your intensity, and your commitment to being great; it inspires those around you.” Their relationship grew and their friendship flourished. Andrew says, “Even though it was called APW it was not doable without someone like you who pushes, it made you like a brother to me.”
