We are really looking forward to our show at the Cave in Chapel Hill. If you're in the area be sure to come out and see us. The shows on a Sunday October 28 - but come on, you can make it out on a Sunday night! We're excited for a couple reasons: first, it's Chapel Hill - a great town where the people are really interested in new music and second, because of the venue. The Cave is the oldest venue in Chapel Hill and is still friendly to emerging artists and more importantly - to dogs. We find that, just like people, you can tell a lot about a place based on how much they like dogs.
So mark your calendar and come out to the show - we'll be playing with the excellent Gregory Brothers from Brooklyn!
See you there!

Catching up
Hey
We haven't been great about keeping up with all the business of being a musician these days. It demands much more time spent at the computer keyboard than an actual keyboard. Some exciting stuff is happening. We'll be a PASTE Magazine Recommended Artist this September which we are really excited about because we love their magazine and really appreciate their support. Of course we'll accept support from any magazine (Guns and Ammo, Horse and Hound) but it feels good when it's one you actually read.
We've also had our music picked up by a few film and tv licensing companies that could create some great visibility for our songs. All of this is made possible by sitting at the computer and reaching out to people that would otherwise be unreachable. But you really realize how much you look like a zombie when you catch your dog staring at you - trying to figure out why you've been silently staring at a light for 3 hours. After all we could be outside meeting new people and smelling things.
But it's important. Because even though it feels like the most disconnected thing you do it actually connects you to a lot of people - like hopefully the people reading this now. So we promise to be better about keeping up with this post and all the other internet business of music even as we're getting really busy - rehearsing and booking new shows and getting out there and meeting all you people we only get to talk to on the computer.
