Some songs take 25 years to find their moment. "Invisible" was written by Twin Wolves (lifelong friends and collaborators Shon Aguero and Marcus Blair) in the early 2000s, tucked away with dozens of other demos, and recently recovered. In this episode, we trace the song back to its roots: a childhood spent largely as a latchkey kid, a young man who learned to crave solitude even as it edged towards loneliness. The tension never fully resolved. But somewhere along the way we found that we weren't truly alone even when we are by ourself. Faith fills in the space. Hidden Tracks puts two generations in the room as fathers talk to sons about things they wrote and created 25 years ago, when they were the same age their sons are now.
