On the release of PHASES Deluxe, lead-singer
Danielle McTaggart said: "Writing the 'Phases' record was an incredible journey. It definitely earned it's name for the highs and lows we experienced. We've always been on a wild ride with
Dear Rouge and we didn't want it to be finished just yet. When we started recording PHASES, we had the deluxe version in mind and the songs we're releasing today were already part of the story of PHASES - written and recorded at the same time. These songs truly belong on the record, and there is no better time to put these out than on the one-year anniversary of PHASES. We hope fans enjoy this deluxe version!"
