Due to winter storm, Nemo, we had to cancel a few North East dates that we had booked. We promise to reschedule our shows in Lowell, MA and Purchase, NY in the Spring. Heartwell will make the trip with us. For now, we have three dates at the end of the month. Us and Heartwell will be in Richmond, Virginia Beach, and Washington D.C. from February 22nd-24th. All of the info is in our tour dates page. We’re working on confirming more dates for the month of March. In April and May, we will be playing a few music festivals. All of those details are posted with links to passes to each fest. Be sure to get your passes now because they will go fast. On March 3rd, we’re going to begin working on our first music video in support of “Every Last Piece”. Exciting!

Live Studio Session at XPN
Hey friends,
A few weeks ago, we performed a live studio session for The Key at XPN in Philadelphia, PA. The session was posted online today. The set includes five tracks the covers the discography of the band. It’s being hosted as a free stream and download. The Key and XPN have been very kind to us over the last few years and we really appreciate them inviting us to be a part of this series. Big thanks to John V. for putting this together. Now go enjoy the songs!
