6.9.2008 - If you've noticed there're less shows coming up than usual, it's because we've been spending a lot of time writing and demo-ing: some new things, and some old things we had to put on hold while we were playing so often. We spent the last weekend in the studio, and we hope to share one of the songs with you soon, it's a cover tune. In the mean time, here's an article/interview on us that ran a few weeks ago, give it a read. Make sure you make it to some of the shows we've got coming up!

4.21.2008 - The documentary titled "If We Never Stop Moving..." is now available!

fter the release of their stellar new EP If We Never Stop Moving, they've been true to that motto. They are not about following trends, but about delivering soul laden performances coupled with timeless songwriting..." Nice! Read the whole thing here.
