NEWS!!!
June/July 2009
Hey Gang,
How many of you have downloaded music without paying for it? I know most of us have at one time or another, but most of us (!!!) feel guilty. Well, now you can download some YMDITD for free and we still get royalities! The good folks over at the Mylene Sheath have teamed up with www.gimmiesound.com to provide listeners free tunes. All of the Mylene sheath digital realeases are available, plus other music that I have not checked out yet. If you are down for some free tunes go and do it and tell your friends!

Other than that we are bascially taking a break for a while. We have most of the full length written, but we all have a lot of other personal stuff going on right now. We really appreciate your patience with us. I know how hard it is to wait for new music, and believe me we all want new music out as much as you do!!! Enjoy your summer.
xoxo,
Brandon

Wow, I can't believe that it is spring already. It is still raining in Seattle, but there are blossoms everywhere! We are still lying low and trying to write some new songs and play the occasional show. Speaking of shows we have a show on Thursday, April 16th @ the Sunset Tavern w/ El Ten Eleven, and The Luna Moth. We'll let you know when we have more updates about recording, merch, and all the other stuff that some of you care about :) Until next time... xoxo,Brandon
February 2009
The new year came and went with so much to look forward to. We are having a really hard time trying to coordinate our schedules and finding a practice space here in Seattle. If anyone knows of, or has a cheap or FREE practice space let us know and we'll hook you up! There is a lot of talk about what we will be doing this year, but no firm plans yet. Here is a wishlist: Record a full length, record a 7", full USA tour, SXSW, new shirts/merchandise, new haircuts :)Who knows how much of that we will or can accomplish, but those are some goals that we have. Thanks again to everyone who supported us through 2008, especially the folks at The Mylene Sheath!!! We should be playing some shows around town this spring, and if we can do a full USA tour it will likely be in late summer.
Here is a clip from a house show we played this winter of a new song that we have been jamming on...

Happy St. Valentine's Day

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! I know my wife and I enjoyed two days filled with Tofurkey, mashed potatoes, and pie! We have a couple of all-ages show coming up in December that we are really excited about! The first show is December 8th at El Corazon with God is an Astronaut (from Ireland) and Hypatia Lake. This should be an amazing Monday night show so make sure you come out and have some fun. Buy tickets online for this show here, Tickets West.
The next show is Friday, December 12th at the Bowie Room, a house located in North Seattle. Check out the shows page for all the info... Thanks for all of your continued support.
Love, Brandon
