For years, Lukas Frank, the artist at the center of Storefront Church, has been quietly honing his craft. As a musician, he's played with artists across genres, spending time as the drummer in a multitude of projects, most notably in Phoebe Bridgers' band. But slowly, Frank began wanting to build something of his own making, taking on the moniker Storefront Church, and making the band's debut album, As We Pass, as lush and evocative as possible. While Frank is the figurehead of Storefront Church, As We Pass was built in collaboration with some of his closest friends. Guitarist Waylon Rector worked alongside Frank, helping co-write songs on the album and crystalize it's vision. Similarly, DIIV's Zachary Cole Smith worked along with Frank on the material, co-writing songs and ensuring the album's sound fully took root. Engineer Cassidy Turbin, one of Beck's closest confidants, gave As We Pass the same care.
