During the shutdown of 2020, the recording studios in Los Angeles were closed for several months. For avid creators Bud and J.D., this was a time to start planning and writing for the day that the studios would open again and what sort of new songs would emerge. Over the course of the next year, The Boxmasters would record three new albums. A very personal album called "Nothing Personal" which is yet to be released, "Christmas in California" which was released in November of 2021 and "Help...I'm Alive" which is to be released on April 15th on Keentone Records/Thirty Tigers.
