This past weekend, Hilary Hughes of the Weekly Dig braved our smelly van and tagged along for the DC and Boston shows. Here is her report, complete with video and photos (by Jess Hodge). And there may or may not be a reference to Huey Lewis.

Well, thank you. Really, we’re not just saying that. You once again voted us Best Roots Act in the Boston Phoenix Best Music Poll. That’s two years in a row, which means our egos are now seriously at risk for inflation.  No more green M&Ms in the dressing room.  We’re feeding our dogs only Fiji…

We have two mighty, big, fantastic shows coming up. Well, in our eyes at least.  Next week we’ll be headlining the Rock and Roll Hotel in Washington DC (June 17), our home away from home.  Then we’ll go to our home-actually-in-our-home for a great show at Great Scott in Boston (June 18).  For both of…

Between vicious tornadoes and massive floods across the US, might be easy to forget the devastating earthquake that pummeled Japan back in March. We’re thrilled to have a song on PlaygroundBoston.com’s sampler featuring “some of the best songs from some of the best local bands in the city of Boston.” Name your price- 100% of…

Amazing night Saturday in Portland for This Way‘s CD release. Any time 30 people get on the stage and scream wildly, antics (and apparently, touchdowns) ensue.

Lots of buzz around the new tune “I Don’t Wanna Go Home” especially after it premiered as NPR’s Song of the Day; from the Boston Globe to Awaiting the Flood (with a name like that, we have to mention them), lots of folks chimed in about the tune. We have to say the winner for…

Well, today is release day. We’re excited to present our new single “I Don’t Wanna Go Home” and also excited that NPR is premiering it as its “Song of the Day.”  Apparently NPR thinks we’re excited too, given the name of the article is “Call of the Wild.” And we’re also excited to offer this…

Hi friends, this is the artwork for our new single ‘I don’t wanna go home.’ (Frank Germano did it. He rocks). We liked it so much we flattered it with an updated website layout… We’re releasing this tune on Monday, and we’ll have an announcement too…stay tuned…

This friday, half of us will be opening up for Chris Trapper, an awesomely underrated singer/songwriter.  He’s been on tour for a while now with Colin Hay, and we’re excited to interrupt that great bill with an acoustic-y opening set at the Center for the Arts in Natick, MA (tickets here). We’ll rework some songs,…

Hell of a weekend in DC, Boston and NYC. Great shows all around with Pearl and the Beard and Ugly Purple Sweater in support of Escapemaker.com’s Green Getaways expo. But forget about the shows, there was in fact a fake cow. Milkable.
