Lets goooo birmingham last night of the tour! So stoked!

I met Ernest in a perchance situation and I haven't shared it online yet. He and his wife were in front of my wife and I in line for the Tame Impala show in ATL 2021. I couldn't believe my luck. I was getting so nervous to talk to him, but luckily my wife was incredible and went up to them. They were so kind to my wife and I. Later on we were going to get refills and the bartender let us know they were paid for. Across the bar his wife winked at us. His music is something that I'll always cherish and I'm so glad that my wife and I had that interaction. I wish I remembered to tell him how great Purple Noon is to me. Can't wait for this project!

That’s awesome. I’ve played quite a few shows and met a few bands/artists and some were total assholes (like MGK) but when you meet a good one - you just appreciate them and their work that much more 👍🏻

I know the feeling. I still remember when You and I first came out on Chill XM Satellite Radio and then Within and Without was released shortly after. I've followed Ernest's music ever since.

Your quiet passion and dedication to your family, art and music is incredibly inspiring and deeply appreciated

100% agree

I've listened to Washed out for more than 13 years, it's therapeutic for me. I guess we don't think about the people putting out such effort, energy, love and life changing music and so thank you for this personal perspective for both of you and please live life to the fullest and be well. Cheers!

You changed the way i see and feel my life with your music

Ernest, I've been a huge fan since Within and Without. I saw you in Denver at Colorfield. Thank you so much for your music, and thank you for giving us a look at your day to day. So happy for you and your family. You inspired my album and you continue to inspire me in other areas of life. Thank you.

your songs are therapy in my ears 🩵

This had me teary eyed. You’ve made beautiful music that has lived with us and soundtracked many memories, more than you’ll probably ever know. Thank you, sincerely, and enjoy your quiet life. Look forward to the album

Same Here, And Yes, Exactly

Amazing visuals and beautiful storytelling, felt like it was spoken from your soul. Honored that you let us in. We’re happy you’re back. Thank you

This hit me a lot harder than I expected. I’m happy for Ernest and his family, this was inspiring to say the least

Such a phenomenal mini documentary. It's not easy nowadays to really make that conscious effort to slow down and do what you know is right for yourself and your loved ones. In recent years, I've tried to do that myself with mindfullness and meditation, especially living next to big city. Glad you've found that too and I'm happy that you're creating projects from a place that makes you happy. 'Paracosm' for me is one of my all time favorite records. Everything about it is perfect, like a dream I never want to wake up from. I'd like to think this next project will carry a similar grace to it as well with regards to what I've been seeing from you these past couple weeks. Regardless though, I'm just glad you're enjoying the process and doing what you love. Cheers Ernest!

I've been listening since I was 16 and I am 30 now. I was very lucky to see you in Tel Aviv in happier times. Your music gave me more than words can say, within and without changed me. Thank you and blair for calming me down and giving me new air in good and harder times❤

I studied abroad in Thailand 10 years ago and my friends started playing 'Life of Leisure'.. I was instantly addicted to Ernest's music and have been following Washed Out ever since.Your music brings me to nostalgic, happier times. Saw your set in Chicago on a rooftop in 2019. What a beautiful journey you have gone on as an artist over the last 15 years. As a graphic designer myself, I respect the visuals in your work. Thanks for all the music and hard work. So excited for the new record, cheers!

Loved your art since life of leisure. You are 1 of 1. Enjoy your peace and family

As an artist myself, who hasn't dropped a project in 2 years watching this inspires me and gives me hope that I'll eventually arrive at what I'm supposed to do. Also lets me know I shouldn't resent other things that might pull me away from creativity cause they're important too. Thank you

I have been a fan of his music for over 10 years and had no clue he had roots where I now call home myself. Amazing.

Thank you for sharing this with us, your lovely family💖 love you all & much blessings🙌

Love the visuals of this video. 🩵

I first heard “Belong” off High Times in 2009, and it’s been great to watch you grow from the early work to who you’ve become as a person and artist in recent time. Thank you for all the contributions and inspiration over the years. Looking forward to the new project. 🤝

I’ve been with your music from the start, and from that start, I always labeled it as my favorite musician in general, and that hasn’t changed. The aura you provide for your listeners musically, visually, and internally is something I’ve yet to find elsewhere; a peaceful combination. Thank you for channeling your world into so many artistic forms - beautiful documentary and locale!

Washed out is a soundtrack in my life. His music always evokes nostalgic memories for me. I listened non-stop to his first and second album when I was on holiday in Greece. So every time I hear his melancholic melodies and voice, it takes me back to those beaches and sunset nights. I am 41, musician and photographer and this beautiful documentary shows me that I have much more in common than I initially thought. I love his art work and hope to see more from that in the future!

Beautiful, meditative piece. Thank you for your music, Ernest.

Hope you found peace yall. Thanks for the music.

new album should really be called "Notes From A Dad Life"

Awesome insight - can’t wait to hear the album!

I was at your Seattle show in 2022. It was magical, euphoric, and passionate. I was taken to another dimension with my eyes closed. When looking at you, I sensed something from you. I thought maybe you seemed down. Hearing you say now that you were severely burned out hurts my heart. I am sorry that you were suffering in silence for our enjoyment. I experience burnout too, as an introvert. It's exhausting. I can't even imagine going on tour. I thank you for sharing your art, your soul. Your music feeds my soul. Your music is euphoria and joy. Thank you for sharing part of your story and your life with us. I wish you and your family the very best and many blessings ❤❤❤

Thanks bro! Riding with you till the end!

This is my first exposure to Ernest and his music. Reminds me of the first time I heard Another Green World by Brian Eno, indulging in and savoring the moment.

Your music transcends the soul man. Thank you for this personal film. I knew you were cool, but stuff like this confirms it.

Amor Fati is my favorite song of all time ❤

Always paid attention to your music Ernest. I have followed you from the beginning..

Thanks for this video. Your music is so therapeutic and life inspiring.

Every time I listened to your music, I learn, I love, I see things clearly, thank you!

So unbelievably beautiful, thank you for the peek behind the curtain 🙏🏻

Ernest, you have been a source of inspiration for me ever since I came across your first release while scrolling through ISO50 while I was in college a long time ago. Your artwork, regardless of medium, lifestyle, and outlook on life is one I feel a deep connection with. Never stop creating no matter what that means. Your work always comes into my life at the right time it seems. Thank you.

I really enjoyed this video! I recently moved out to the country from the city and resonate with the peaceful atmosphere.

Omg that outro track is so good.

Your voice always stays soothing ever since Life of Lesiure. Love your songs

thank you for sharing this, it's lovely

This is the music of my life. Gotta love it

Fan from the start here... I think the soundtrack of your life has also become mine. Thank you for sharing. ❤

So beautiful - Thank you for this album - Such a special gift - Resonating with my own journey of being grounded in my purpose - Hope to see you in the Magic City!

what a beautiful little bit of insight into your world, Ernest. Thank you for sharing your talents with us - like so many others, your music is such a large part of my life. Up there with Eno, Budd, Robin Guthrie, Max Richter, and Johann Johannsson.

Can't express how much Ernest has influenced my life with his music, creative process, lifestyle, background.. whatever you want to call it, it's gotten me here to this point and I'm so glad he's still making music that will live on for generations to come. Washed Out forever.

Love these behind the scenes understanding of how the music gets created. ❤

Thank you so much for this! I saw you live in 2015 for my very first concert in Dallas Tx - and live in Dallas as well in 2022. Cant wait for this to come out. But I understand and or wonder myself about the burnout. thank you for talking about it. We dont always need tours. And we are patient in regards to music. I am so grateful for all of the music that you put out.

My life has been a wild ride with ur music being a big part of it. Ill never forget my first time hearing feel it all around for the first time. Im familiar with and love all ur work. This album though, is incredible and might be a close fav. I couldn’t imagine a life without ur talent.

Growing with your music, your life experiences, has been a blissful journey through my life and my experience here. Looking forward for all projects of yours. See you in Austin

필름이 너무 좋아요. 신보를 너무 기다려지네요 ❤‍🔥

Thanks for your creativity! Each of your songs is a separate world, filled with emotions and meaning.

connect a lot with Ernest. I am going through the same stage of raising my son and the process is hard but it is where all the resistance and inspiration springs to move forward in our life. I am also a music producer and this video has given me enormous inspiration.

I appreciate you sharing these intimate parts of your life with us, they're deeply appreciated, like your music! Thank you for continuing to create and share!

Lovely film, thanks. Purple Moon is fab, looking forward to what you do next. X

Always a fan Ernest I support you always!!

amazing. the visuals and his mindset are so refreshing. also these beats sound incredible. can't wait for this album!

Bro, this is so beautiful. I'll always love your music.

Has been, will always be, my favorite artist! Now my 5 year old daughter is obsessed too. We sing his songs in the car on the way to school everyday. Its going to be one of my favorite memories. We were at restaurant once and one of his songs came on. She yelled, "Mom! its time to walk away !!!" Everyone looked over and laughed. Pretty sure they thought she was giving me some advice.

This is beautiful. Thank you for letting us learn more about you. Wishing you and your family the best as you grow together in your new home.

This was very good for my soul…..thank you for coming out with this 🤘🤘🤘

this was one of the coolest things ive seen in a while

Already pre-ordered my vinyl I CANNOT WAITTTTT

Really, thank you very much for sharing this wonderful documentary with us! All the best for you and your family. Get to know your music and learned it to love for more than 7 years now. 🙏

I love your music so much! That was a beautiful insight, so beautiful, thanks for sharing! Absolutely love the new record!!!

Washed out will always hold a special place in my heart for the beauty it's brought into my life. Thanks Ernest ❤🎉

amazing ernest thanks for the inspiration

thank you for sharing this part of yours! ❤

Thank you for sharing your life. Gives me perspective to my own...I try too hard sometimes.

As someone who has appreciated your music since Life of Leisure and who is roughly the same age, I loved every moment of this. Your art has always provided me a moment of calm in this busy world. I hope you continue to make more art, but it’s wonderful to see you put your own peace first.

Thank you for this. Can't wait to see you guys again!

I really like and enjoy your art, hope you can produce more of it. Best wishes!

Thank you for sharing this

Washed Out is my favorite band. Can't wait to see you back in NC sometime. Thank you kindly Ernest..

All around Beautiful ♡~

Excited for this record. Beautiful memories tied with your music. And love the title of this new record. And your exploration with visual art too is awesome. This reminded so much of the purity of pursuing pure art. Thank you

Very cool and inspiring video you’ve created here. Can’t wait to hear your new album, and I will be picking up tickets tomorrow fornyour Toronto show! Cheers from Canada !!

I appreciate watching the evolution of artists I absolutely love. This is such a beautiful visual piece and example of human vulnerability. I'm looking forward to the new album and wish you the best for the next wave of touring .

This is such a refreshing video. Thank you so much.

A beautiful documentary. One of my favorite artists. A truly authentic soul, he tends to his garden of life, where joy blossoms in the simple beauty of everyday moments.

Good video, relatable in many ways (not the famous musician part). An effective and engaging reminder of what's important. Thanks for sharing.

You're the best ❤

This is beautiful , thank you for sharing 💜

great video :) love from one creative to another, it's hard to be "on" all the time. Take the time to be "off" sometimes. Thank you for being willing to be vulnerable.

Amazing ❤

Inspiring!!!

So beautiful!

Te escucho desde 2009 cuando estudiaba la preparatoria, has sido parte de mi vida durante mucho tiempo y en muchos momentos importantes, recuerdo escuchar tu música en Myspace y descargar tus canciones a través de Ares. Cuando alguien me pregunta sobre mi música favorita siempre se me viene a la mente tu música y el álbum que más cariño tengo y que más significa en mi vida es Within and Without. Sin embargo también recuerdo tus canción más antiguas y sus viejas versiones, de cuando no estaban en un álbum o eso recuerdo, que estaban sueltas en tu pagina de myspace. Cuando recibí el correo de tu nuevo álbum sentí una gran alegría, por que los últimos meses te buscaba regularmente en tus redes, esperando que reaparecieras, ahora están aquí y voy a disfrutar mucho esto.

Hermosos trabajos Ernest, larga vida a Washed Out 👽

Wonderful! Thank you

I love this

My life soundtrack. :)
