After the pandemic brought their typically relentless touring efforts to a standstill, the group spent the better part of the year without seeing one another in person. That did not stop them from creating, of course, but it did challenge their understanding of how to navigate the complicated business of entertainment.   Just take a moment to consider everything that didn't happen as a result of the pandemic. Not only did All Hail The Yeti lose countless dollars from canceled tour dates, but they also had to delay their long-awaited fourth studio album. That record, which the group almost completed before COVID-19 brought live music to a halt, has yet to see the light of day.  But here, in April 2021, the music industry is optimistic for the first time in over a year. Festivals and tours are getting announced every week, and a grown amount of artists are planning to release music before the calendar year comes to a close. That includes All Hail The Yeti, who've also begun work on the record that will follow.  In the latest episode of Inside Music, All Hail The Yeti's founding member Connor Garrity reflects on the impact of the last year on his mental health and professional outlook. He discusses how his time away from the stage has provided other creative opportunities, as well as the story behind his band's upcoming tour alongside Jinjer and Suicide Silence. He even spills a few details about the group's highly-anticipated fourth record.
