It's a conversation about soul, folk, boisterous lyrics and much more with three core members of musical collective [House Handshake](http://www.facebook.com/househandshake/). We talk about their circuitous, bi-provincial route to becoming a band, their elaborately planned-out recording and release plans, and everything else under the sun.

Rhayne's work can be found at her Vimeo page and at the MB Cold Storage Tumblr. ...
