This project started during Covid when Nektar were incapacitated and could not get together other than by Zoom. It started with a riff Derek used to play for soundcheck in the 70’s. Ryche picked up on it right away and said, "let’s make a song around it” and the song became “Mission To Mars”.
“Long Lost Sunday” was the next logical step, a song reaching for your Higher Self. Then the next song just happened. The band immediately sat down on the floor and worked out a bass part for the chorus. Ryche, Maryann and Derek sang the Da da da part and they liked it so much it made the final cut on “One Day Hi One Day Lo”.
The original idea for “I’ll Let You In” came to Ryche in less than five minutes and with that they knew instantly that they would use it on the album and worked out a bridge in two minutes. It was so powerful it brought tears to their eyes. Ryche straightaway put down a scat vocal and the band were off to start this new album.
"Ryche is wonderful to write with, he has a very active musical mind and we tic to the same toc. Over the next few years Ryche and I and later Kendall put together the music for Mission to Mars. We would bounce ideas around over the internet, with many versions evolving and with the final version being completed in the studio while we were recording it. With multiple lyric sessions Ryche and I plugged on, writing the final lyrics together on his kitchen table. I have to say I love how it turned out, so much so, we will play the entire album on our Mission to Mars tour."
