Give it a listen on Spotify, Bandcamp, Apple Music, or YouTube.

    Spring Tour Recap

    Our first official tour is in the books, and holy forking shirtballs was it an epic one. We were only out for ten days but it felt like it went by in thirty minutes, or maybe two months, who knows. I could not be prouder of my bandmates for pulling it together and rocking the…

It launches with a charming, wordy verse that builds to impossibly catchy floating harmonies in the chorus.
