We're looking for a live bass player... →

…so Phil can run around the stage like a maniac with his microphone (just kidding, sorta). Click the link to read more, and hit us up if you’re interested. No dad jeans wearers or 6-string funk bass players, please. Thanks :)

Fall 2010 Tour Canceled; New EP "High and Low" on...

Hey everyone - Phil here. Sad to announce that our Fall 2010 Tour is officially canceled. Shows were booked between Sep 16 - Oct 2, from Reno to NYC (including an appearance at the MidPoint Music Festival in Cincinnati), but we’ve had to pull the plug due to changes in the rest of the band’s availability. I’m so sorry to disappoint anyone who was looking forward to seeing us...

Eno predicts everything in 2010, circa 1995. →

Incredible 1995 interview with the great Brian Eno, in which he more or less predicts Nintendo Wii, reality TV, Pandora internet radio, & artists giving away their songs for fans to remix.

New songs tonight.

Back to rehearsal. Quick math: we’ve shelved 17 (!) live songs since Nov 2009. Write, refine, replace, repeat.
