i give my friends flowers is the music project of Jacob and Julian Klein. Their sound could be described as heartfelt indie, lo-fi pop, or chillwave. IGMFF’s debut album 'NOW, FOREVER' is the result of the producer / songwriter / brother duo moving to Asheville, NC and bringing artists through their home studio. The album is a collection of songs created with friends new and old, here and there. 'NOW, FOREVER' is an offering, a dream in which to get lost, music for late night drives and overlooks, to share with lovers and loved ones, or for drifting off under your favorite tree.

‘are we dreaming’ is about that moment of lucidity in a dream where you question the nature of your experience, the trick of the mind that convinces us that a dream is real.
The music video was filmed by a small crew in Asheville and reflects a stream of conscious daydream, watching the mind as it wanders through sense and memory. We hoped to capture the feeling of projecting into someone else’s experience when they describe a dream or memory to you, and how we collectively validate each others’ realities by sharing our experiences with each other.

The second single and title track from the album, ‘now, forever’ is an instrumental track lifted by dynamic drums, dreamy keys, and watery guitars. A found voice-memo reflects a distant late-summer day, quiet humming, a moment suspended in time.
