A new year, a new focus.

Hey everyone, Ben here. So sorry that we haven’t written in a long time. Things have been really crazy, and we’ve been trying to get our heads around everything involving the band as of late.

Updates for our friends.

Hello everyone, ben here. Just wanted to give you a little heads up on things. We’ve been mostly trying to practice lately and failing often due to scheduling conflicts. However, things are going well, and we’ve recently been getting some college radio play, thanks to our friends at Mostly Midwest. We recently got another review … Continue reading

The goings on.

Tonight we start practicing in the new practice space (Vineyard Church of … Continue reading

Hey gang, ben here, just giving you a little update as to what’s up with the band right now. I know that our updates have been few and far between as of late, and I apologize for that (although I’m sure some of you are grateful we haven’t been posting updates as much). So, what’s … Continue reading

some thoughts

Ben here. Just thinking about how the show went, and the reaction we got from people on Saturday night. We played at Clearwater, and things went really well.

A medal or a chest to pin it on.

Good afternoon, friends and readers, Ben here again. I’ve realized that I need to just pump out the posts about our songs so that I can just get through the EP. It felt good yesterday to write about Suggestion Box, which is probably one of the most personal songs on the EP (for me, anyway). … Continue reading
