Hello Spring

Hey all, Brendan here! The buds on the trees outside our kitchen have just shown up in the past few days, and yesterday was the first windows-open-all-day day of the year. The city hasn’t so much creaked back to life as it has settled into cautiously buzzing relief from the snow-shit piles on sidewalks everywhere. Meanwhile the city has been repainting the columns holding up the train tracks near our block, and there’s been huge, clamorous machines up and down the street, thundering away and muscling pedestrians off the sidewalk. They too are starting to go the way of the snow-shit piles, leaving a new coat of paint in their wake. Happy spring.

I’ll be getting back to writing here this season, but first, a quick update: We’ll be playing our last show for a little while on April 12th! In a reversal of the typical band’s seasonal rhythm, we’ll be taking the summer months off to write some new tunes and get the next album together. We’ll have a few things to announce in the meantime, but 4/12 will be our last show for a bit!

Naturally, we’ll be at the illustrious Hart Bar, playing with Chaser, Rope Trick, and Cometa Negra – a stacked bill! Please do come out.

Also, Calley’s main band Star Card will be playing at Hart Bar the day before, right on their birthday. I’ll be on drums as usual. We’ll also be banging out our last set for a bit while we spend the next little while working up some new material. Come to both!

That’s all for now! I’ll be getting back into writing here pretty shortly, and we’ll also have some non-album recordings announced in the coming months, so don’t turn that dial, etc.

Be well & take care of each other.
