Hurd says, "It’s been fun to fit everything in, and the timing for this kid is really perfect. It’s cool to get to do this job. and it’s cool for Maren to not have to choose between being a touring artist and being a mother. I’m looking at it like it’s going to be a bubble of time. We’re going to get in this bubble. and it’s going to be really different and fun and cool and strange, but really fulfilling. We do love to work, and we’ve struck a good balance"
