Our new EP will be available to download on Christmas morning! Because it is Christmas, it will be an eleven song EP, featuring two new songs, remixes, and six live songs culled from this past year.
More later...
Okay. You've all heard me tell you how awesome The Southgate House is. Having long since spent all of my money at the bar (thanks for the rides home, everyone, you know who you are), they have finally put me into their employ. I can finally afford to buy YOU a drink (you know who you are).
Every Monday night, I am your host from 9-2. Bring a guitar if you've got one.
Sharon is now serving beer behind the bar- Awesome!
...Sharon might be there now. What time is it?
We just found out that we are going to play South By Southwest in March, and I love you. And by: "you," I mean: "everyone."
Tonight is Saturday, December 10, and you can catch us playing a stripped down set at the I See Sound party tonight at The Holy Grail. We will be playing four new songs.
Visit I-See-Sound.com for details.
We were voted Best Alternative/Indie Rock band at The Cincinnati Entertainment Awards! Thank you to everyone who voted for us! Congratulations to all the other winners and to our buddies, Staggering Statistics, who were voted Best New Band!
Next Tuesday, December 6, you can catch me (and maybe Darin) performing at Allyn's Cafe for Hullabaloo 2. It's such a big event, it takes two Tuesdays to do it, and the line-up is retarded.
