 Happy Record Store Day!!

 Hi everybody!!!

  It’s been a while since we checked in here. We apologize. It’s been a whirlwind as of late. 

 We took a couple months off after our last tour show on Halloween ‘15.  In that time we buried ourselves in our studio. We worked on new songs and released “I Want Candy” as a single which was immediately picked up by Chirp Radio in Chicago as well as Rocker’s Dive Radio worldwide and a few others. We are very grateful!

  We have done our first two shows of the 2016 “HOME” Tour. The 1st was a house party for our #1 fan’s 14th birthday. His name is Micah and his superpower is autism. He attends quite a few of our shows and knows every song by heart. We had an absolute blast playing in his house for a great crowd!!!  

  Our next show was a very very special one.  We were asked by Chicago Music Guide (Who we LOVE!) to do a benefit show of our choosing at EvenFlow in Geneva, Il for Chicago Music Guide’s series Local Artists Supporting Local Causes.  

  We chose to support the Alzheimer’s Association of Greater Illinois. A cause that’s very close to us. At the time Jamie’s father Sergio was living comfortably in a beautiful assisted living facility.  He passed 10 days before the show while riding in the car with Jamie’s mother on a sunny day. He was holding her hand when he passed instantly of a heart attack.. a pretty good way to go. 

  We raised thousands of dollars for Alzheimer’s Association, sold the venue out. had a truly awesome raffle filled with Cubs tickets, craft brewery gift certificates and a bevy of other goods and services!

 We thank our fans/friends/families, Chicago Music Guide, EvenFlow, the Alzheimers Association of Great Illinois and 2 great acts that opened the day... David Michael from the band Greywall who did another epic acoustic set, and Koopa & Los Mysterios who floored the room with what is arguably the best rockabilly show in the entire midwest!

      This past month we filmed a song for NPR Tiny Desk Concert Series.

  Take a look at “Everywhere I Go” done at a desk with tiny amps and tiny drums...which Jamie wrecks at the end ala The Who.

Up next we have a few things happening.

 Our 2nd digital album release “HOME” is being worked on presently. We will be releasing singles in the next couple of weeks.

  We have 2 shows lined up for spring. We are currently booking the rest of the tour.
