Ramping up to record a full-length record!
March 21, 2012
The time has come for us to go back into the studio, and we're ready to record a full lenght record! We're all really excited about it. We've been writing a lot of new material over the past few months, and have been playing a ton of shows. We've begun to demo out the new tracks as well and have some cool stuff we just can't wait to share. It's been a lot of fun, but we still have quite a bit of work to do. We launched a kickstarter to help us fund the recording process, as we want to produce the best possible record we can. Check out our Kickstarter page for more info. When you donate you will get a demo recording of 'Twenty Six', one of the new tracks of the album. We'll keep you updated with the process, thanks for your support!
Holiday Benefit Show & California

Happy New Year friends! We've all been reflecting on how amazing 2011 was, and we're optimistic and excited about what 2012 has in store. Thank you to everyone who came out and supported the Holiday Benefit Show we played at Birdsall House, our expectations were exceeded, thank you for making the event a huge success. We are happy to announce that we raised over $500 for the Peekskill High School Music Department.
In other news, we decided to take a band trip out to Los Angeles to see some friends and play a show or two. We have a show booked at The Hotel Cafe on Jan 12th, and hopefully will have one more to announce. We can't wait to get out there, soak up some sun and play some music. Hope to see some of you there!

The Cartographer
September 15, 2011
Our very own Ian McGuinness just started a blog entitled Cartography in which he will document our journey as a band."It isn't about declaring a goal and a destination and hoping that we as a band make the best decisions in order to achieve that goal. It is about documenting the experiences we have along the way. It is about the people we meet, the personal challenges we overcome, the friends and family we grow closer and further apart from and the simple joy we get from playing music together."
We've also added some news shows, check it!
