Greetings.
Borrow Tomorrow at Double Door. Chicago, IL. 1.29.2011
There are so many exciting things to report I hardly know where to begin. We still have yet to decide on a name for what will undoubtedly be the most thoroughly complete representation of our band thus far, in other words, the “new album.” There’s an urgency within the walls of our studio and rehearsal spaces unlike ever before. With every playback comes the discovery of another nuance, another brilliant musical opportunity to showcase the strength of these songs as extensions of ourselves. Emotional authenticity and honesty are certainly hallmarks of our songwriting, but throughout the recording process, the songs on this new record have grown legs. The goal has always been to produce something of which we (as a band) can be incredibly proud because with this pride comes the desire to share, and what’s the point of creating something without sharing it with friends, family, fans, and everyone in between? I want you to hear these songs and picture yourself in the driver’s seat, trying to find a “better way to get where I’m going to” (from Sometime Back in the ’70′s) right along with us, and I think you will.
Borrow Tomorrow at Radio Radio. 1119 Prospect St., Indianapolis. Doors at 8pm. Show at 830pm. Boto at 10pm.
In the midst of all this hard work in the studio, we’ve played perhaps the most extensive schedule of live dates over the course of the last 8 weeks than we have in any comparable stretch in our band’s history. Appearances at quite possibly Indy’s two best venues (the Vogue and Radio Radio) and a trip to Chicago to play the renowned Double Door have proven quite a remarkable stretch for us considering there were plenty of days in which I could only dream of playing in these rooms. Of course, one of the reasons I set out to write this today was to help remind all of our Indy friends and fans to come out to Radio Radio tomorrow night (Sat. Feb. 12). The turnout at the Vogue last month was fantastic, and I’m confident all of you will be just as supportive this time as well.
As we continue to write, record, and share our music on local stages, all I can hope is that you’re as excited as we are. With any luck, we’ll be wrapping up recording by the end of the month, and we’ll start planning the release party. Meanwhile, come see us tomorrow night at Radio Radio! To help you get back in the rock ‘n’ roll spirit, check out the cool video from the Vogue below:
