Hey there, it's been a while! I just wanted to give you an update on how things are going. The band and I are currently hard at work on new music. It's coming along really well and I can't wait for you to hear it. Definitely the strongest stuff I've ever written. It's going to make you dance, while blowing your eardrums. Fun stuff. Sorry it's taken so long too. If I had my way, you'd be listening to it right now and we'd be coming to play live in your town soon. Good things take time, and this is definitely a labor of love. But don't worry... new shows, music, and videos will be coming your way soon! Hope life has been treating you well, and I just wanted to say thanks as always for your love and support. It's much appreciated. You'll be hearing more news as things get closer to being finished. So until then, take care and I'll talk to you soon!

The April 10th show at Crane's Tavern has been cancelled. I guess they ran into some trouble with the city about noise, so no more shows will be held there... but don't worry! We will be booking more shows soon.
