Happenings

So-
After a louder-than-everyone-else performance at the Vinyl Records showcase and a weekend full of borderline-soulless solicitation from people we didn't know, we once again failed to get ourselves voted onto Vinyl Records. Pity. In the end, it's probably for the best, as we're set to work with our friend Robin Davies in getting out the inaugural 7" on her burgeoning label, as well as possibly working with the up-and-coming Neckbeard Records (helmed by none other than WKNC super-star Stevo and former DTH Diversions editor Bryan Reed). All exciting possibilities, so we're not discouraged, but forging ahead all the same!

We're trying to get that EP we talked about earlier this year finished, deciding on mixing, mastering, etc (all the annoying parts of making music...). We'd like to have it done before the summer so maybe we can do a big blowout (blow-up?) because someone will be graduating in may...

Our lovely friend Missy Thangs (de la Love Language) is also busy at work writing amazing keyboard and piano parts for our EP, and after hearing a few test mixes, they are sounding hott. Be sure to check her amazing outfit out soon if you haven't already had the experience that is the love language (CD release party @ 506 on March 28th--with max indian no less!).

We have an ass ton of new songs that we're just struggling to keep up with and learn, so please expect us to be debuting new songs at our upcoming shows. We're itching to get some new material out, so hopefully you'll benefit from our over-productiveness. Here's a quick recap of our shows, hope to see you at some of them.

Love, love, love,
Sam
