I Could Use a Drink

It's been a crazy first half of the year for us. Lots of shows, lots of stuff and an EP that's almost always done. It's coming, though. That's what she said.
Paul and David just bought new homes, not together, however that would've been cute. Jared got a new job and a new guitar. Tom has taken a vested interest in humidity and is considering changing his last name to Rayo.
We've got a couple festivals lined up for the summer into the fall, but right now we're focusing on new material and maybe some new haircuts. What's that? You want to see pictures? Me too. Me too. All in due time. Until then keep an eye to the ground for this Chuck Norris of an EP, Delta Force style. Stay sexy.

Discovered/Barney McNabb's

So the Move Music Festival was amazing. We met a lot of great people and saw some really talented bands. We hope we're fortunate enough to get invited back next year. If you're anywhere in the northeast you should consider coming out.

In other news...This Saturday David will be performing at the Mercy College sponsored Discovered Competition. The show starts at 3pm and you can buy tickets HERE. If chosen we'll win a 3 song demo and hopefully those cool cats at Discovered will want to keep us around for a little bit. They have their own label..so we're excited.

Later on in the evening we'll be sharing the stage with American Pinup at Barney McNabb's in Yonkers, NY. It's our first local show in a while, so we're super excited. Get your dancing shoes on and your drinking face ready, we're gonna get silly.

Move Music Festival

Today, 4/21/12, we are making our way up to Albany, NY for the Move Music Festival. We'll be playing Jillians at 4pm if you're in the area. Sometimes you gotta get up to get down ;)

More news to come but right we need as many votes as possible to perhaps garner a deal with a small record label based contest. VOTE HERE. We're fairly certain that it resets every day, so we need as many votes as possible from now until March 2 to move on to the semi finals. Tell all your friends!

new music new video

Well we have drums, bass and both guitars all done for the new EP, but no vocals and no EP title, but all in good time. We should be done tracking by the first week of February and hopefully completely done before February's end. Until then, here's our music video

Day 2 of Recording

Today was another 8am start time, but goddamn we got a lot done. Drums are done and rhythm guitars will be finished up tomorrow morning. It's all sounding awesome thanks to Sam Stauff and Asher Zeitschik, who are engineering the whole damn thing.

On another note the acoustic track for The Eagle Has Landed is just a vocal session away from being done. Sex.

These past couple weeks

So the Manhattanville College show was a success. Our thanks goes out to everybody at WMVL Radio and Manhattanville College for putting that together and coming out to support. We had a blast. We're hoping to get back there as soon as possible.

Last night we played the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's Light The Night Walk in front of about 2000 people, which was pretty awesome. Our thanks goes out to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society as was as Chelsea Gross for organizing the event.
