“The Harbour is an ode to being true to yourself and if people can't deal with the true you, then they're not the people for you," the band told The FADER in an email. "Hold onto the strange and wondrous wonky parts of your personality, and treasure those parts of your loved ones. Headstand Skiing Man is doing exactly that, and we treasure those strong arms, balancing legs, tough neck and badass jumpsuit, we want you just as you are, the one and only innovative, stylish head stand Skier!!”
