Here\u2019s how the band explain it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Who is \u201cBobby,\u201d you ask?<br>&nbsp;<br>Enter Pottery. Enter Paul Jacobs, Jacob Shepansky, Austin Boylan, Tom Gould, and Peter Baylis. Enter the smells, the cigarettes, the noise, their van Mary, their friend Luke, toilet drawings, Northern California, Beatles accents, Taco Bell, the Great Plains, and hot dogs. Enter love and hate, angst and happiness, and everything in between. Beginning as an inside joke between the band members, Bobby and his \u201cmotel\u201d have grown into so much more. They\u2019ve become the all-encompassing alt-reality that the band built themselves, for everyone else. So, in essence, Bobby is Pottery and his motel is wherever they are.<br>&nbsp;<br>But really, Bobby is a pilot, a lumberjack, a stay at home dad, and a disco dancer that never rips his pants. He&#8217;s a punching bag filled with comic relief. He laughs in the face of day-to-day ambiguity, as worrying isn\u2019t worth it to Bobby. There\u2019s a piece of him in everyone, there to remind us that things are probably going to work out, maybe. He\u2019s you. He\u2019s him. He\u2019s her. He\u2019s them. Bobby is always there, painted in the corner, urging you to relax and forget about your useless worries. And his motel? Well, the motel is life. It might not be clean, and the curtains might not shut all the way. The air conditioner might be broken, and the floors might be stained. But that\u2019s okay, because you don\u2019t go to Bobby\u2019s Motel for the glamour and a good night\u2019s sleep, the minibar, or the full-service sauna. You go to Bobby\u2019s Motel to feel, to escape, to remember, to distract. You go for the late nights and early mornings, good times and the bad. You might spend your entire life looking for Bobby\u2019s Motel and just when you think you will never find it, you realize you\u2019ve been there all along. It\u2019s filthy and amazing and you dance, and you love it.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/gallery.mailchimp.com\/04780c244c226dd8f0096243b\/images\/7e72381f-b627-433f-bca2-7fe7efbbb064.png?ssl=1\" alt=\"Pottery Welcome To Bobby\u2019s Motel cover artwork \"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u2018Welcome To Bobby&#8217;s Motel\u2019 track list<\/strong><br>1.
