Photo Diary: Tora Share Behind The Scenes Shoot From New Album 'Temps De Flors'

The main control room at Estudis Ground, where we spent two months writing Temps De Flors.

Jai workshopping the synth part for Fear Becomes A Friend.

On the nearby beaches of Costa Brava, we spent a few days exploring some coves when it was time to get out of the studio. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better reset than the pristine blue coves of the Mediterranean.

Thorne in the guitar room of the studio. Mostly, our photographer Ruskin clocked up hours upon hours here playing the guitar.

Jo workshopping a part at one of the nicest standup pianos we had the pleasure of recording with. It made it onto the record a bunch.

The exterior of the studio ‘Estudis Ground’ is in the small town of Cornellàdel Terri, which is just an hour north of Barcelona—many gorgeous summery evenings spent out here. It was perfect, besides the mosquitoes.

On the main street of ‘Banyoles’, one of the closer towns to the studio. We would often visit for a break from the studio for lunch and then head to the lake for a swim.

The name ‘Temps de Flors’ was inspired by the summer flower festival in the nearby city of Girona. On this day, we explored the city and its many flower installations that celebrate the time of the flowers.
