Tour

Hey friends,

We leave for our tour on Saturday, September 7th. This trip will bring us throughout the Midwest. All of the dates can be found on our tour dates page. Be sure to follow us on Facebook and Twitter for immediate updates and useless information. Along with these dates, we have some shows to announce throughout the North East from now until the end of the year. For those of you that are travelling to Fest 12, we’ll be playing November 1st at Mar’s Pub. 

The three of us have been steady chipping away at the writing process of our new record. When we book studio time, we’ll be sure to post it. For now, you can hold yourself over by picking up our new split with Among Giants. Head on over to http://www.say-10.com to grab that on vinyl/digital. We have one more split 7″ coming out by the end of the year. Details on that release will be announced soon!


Summer shows and album review

We are only playing a few shows this summer. Tomorrow night, we’ll be playing a Say-10 Records showcase in Fairfax, VA. On June 15th we’ll be in Philly, June 22nd in Brooklyn, and on July 13th we will be playing a show in New Brunswick. More details will be posted shortly. Any current info can be found on our tour page or simply “Like” us on Facebook. The rest of our summer will be spent writing our new record. As of now, we’re beginning to map out our Mid-West tour for September 7th-15th. If you’d like to help us with a date, please e-mail aspigasound at yahoo.com

 

Thanks to Lemuria, Noun, and everyone at Maxwell’s for having us two weeks ago. It’s sad to see Maxwell’s shutting its doors, but we are thrilled to have been able to play such a legendary venue before it closes. Also, big ups to everyone at 209 Murray for throwing a wicked house show. Oddly enough, Delaware is becoming one of our favorite places to play.

Finally,
Here is a new review of “Every Last Piece.” It’s great to continue to see this album getting reviewed months after its release. On top of that, all of the positive support has been so inspiring. Thank you. You can read the new review here.


February Tour Dates

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!
