Hey Friends, It's been awhile since we've touched base so we hope everybody had a decent fall and is surviving the holiday season. Anywho, we decided to give anyone who cares an update on our lives and how we've been living them... We've been hanging out in our friend Justin's basement recording demos and trying to fix the heat. He's in Seattle and is nice enough to let us attempt to convert his empty basement into a workspace of sorts. We decided that this Thursday will be the day to finally release one of our new tracks and a short video of our basement fun. So this Thursday, at anytime(thats not for suspense, we are just lazy), expect to hear a new song and watch a short video. We have tons of material we're working with and are really excited for everyone to hear it, once we find someone to give us money to record it. The song we'll be releasing is a demo version of a song called, "Closet Weather" that will appear on a 7" for a final Run For Cover release. The song will be accompanied by one old song, and a cover. So stay tuned for a February release. Besides all this, make sure you come see us this December with 2*Sweet and The High Court in the midwest, and this January on the East Coast and Florida(yes,finally) with The Swellers. Love, Us
