Had a blast at the Paradise in Boston, despite stuffing our faces with all the amazing dishes cooked up by the chefs for the Eat Your Heart Out benefit. We found a way to not collapse under the weight of our bellies, but still got some help from Chef Rich Morin (from Lineage, creator of…

Ahead of Monday’s Eat Your Heart Out Boston benefit (to support Future Chefs and Zumix) at the Paradise Rock Club, our own drummer/reporter extraordinaire Steven Lord tagged alongside chef Rich Morin of LiNEaGe, who was whipping up a dish in our honor.  Sure, Steve may have gotten a bit in the way… …but he managed…

It’s election season, which means lots of bickering, negative campaign ads, sketchy uses of money…in other words, the Boston Music Awards! We kid.  In fact, we love the BMA’s, and are thrilled to be nominated for Live Artist of the Year.  In the year since we won New Artist of the Year, we’ve been mastering…

We normally don’t do unplugged shows.  They just kinda seemed to go downhill after Nirvana set too high a bar 17 years ago. Why even bother. Of course that all might change after an amazing experience at an unplugged house concert in the Mt. Pleasant neighborhood of DC this past Saturday night. Many thanks to…

We were just walking around the lake after our set at the Nor’Easter festival in Burlington VT a few weeks back. And who shows up but our friends from Kitchen Sessions. So we did a song on the pier. It wasn’t really ‘pier pressure’. Just trying to be witty. Sorry. Here’s “quiet quiet ground”:

Back in March, we were playing this showcase at the South by Southwest Festival in Austin, TX. It was hot and sweaty, we were on a rooftop, the place was packed. Maybe it was something in the Texan air (it couldn’t have possibly been the margaritas), but that show got wild. Keyboards smashed, ankles sprained. …

This past weekend, we had a blast playing in the rain at the Nor’Easter Fest in Burlington, VT.  We didn’t feel too bad about the weather; it was a music and outdoor sports festival, so people seemed pretty prepared for the elements (much more than us…we’re total wusses…).  The blog Maimed and Tamed got a…

It’s been a long time coming. After a year and a half of driving, playing, fixing van, driving, rinsing, repeating, we’re very excited to announce that we have some new music coming out.  Our new, still-untitled EP is coming out in early December, and we’re heading to one of our favorite rooms in the world,…

Thanks to Gabe for reminding us about the bucket list on our Facebook page. In long van rides, we have been thinking about ours: While in Rochester, eat ‘garbage plate’ immediately before playing a show. Play Woodstock ’14.  Insist Limp Bizkit is added to lineup. Invent program for people to manage and buy MP3’s, movies,…

There wasn’t a high school gym or a brooding loner trying to win over his crush with previously unknown power-pop guitar chops, but you could call it a Battle of the Bands.  We are thrilled to have won 92.5 The River’s Music Matters contest, and to open up for Brett Dennen and Augustana on September…
