excited to be spending the weekend of Feb 10 at The Purple Fiddle in Thomas, WV. Saturday night we will open for The Hot Seats, followed by an afternoon show at 1pm on Sunday.

en route to Washington, DC we pulled off to a roadside farm and recorded an impromptu version of “Routine & Horrifying”, a song that will hopefully be on our next record (shot by Seth Klinger). enjoy!

big thanks to World Cafe Live and Reverend TJ McGlinchey for a great time on the main stage.

Just added – Wed, Dec 28th at Room 5 in Los Angeles, California!

great time playing up at Springfield College in Massachusetts where I got to take a picture with this man, James Naismith. without him, there would be no hidden track about Kobe Bryant.
