The writing process for this project began in the tumultuous year of 2020, reflecting the then-current state of things – the first summer of the corona pandemic raging along with all of its frustrations, fears, insecurities, rules, and persistence on keeping a social distance.

Teitur, from his home at the Faroes Islands and author Roy Freirich from his home in Malibu, California, corresponded. An email correspondence between two creative minds, involving the author sharing his life experiences during the pandemic. Passages from the emails were mined and refined by Teitur, who crafted them into lyrics and used them as inspiration for the music he wrote for the Aarhus Jazz Orchestra on their new collaborative album, SONGS FROM A SOCIAL DISTANCE (to be released in June 2023).
