Tour News Pictures of new shirt designs and Stickers!

SOOOO we have 15 CONFIRMED shows for our upcoming summer tour!!!  That is over 4,000 miles of driving in 20 days....Now that I read that, it sounds kind of insane.  Anyways,  we have had to change a few things around as far as shows, so make sure you go up to the UPCOMING SHOWS tab, click on it and read the updated tour dates.  


As the title of this post suggests, we have a picture of the new shirts we are making  and I must admit they are pretty damn cool!  If you really really want one, you HAVE to tell us to save one for you, we are only making 50 shirts!  Shout at us on Facebook or any other means of communication.  Also I want to give a big, giant, huge thanks to Kaitlin Roweton, who drew and designed this thing.  We appreciate the hell out of it! Here is what they are going to look like! 
Pretty awesome Right?  We also made some stickers, which we already have in our possession.  They look like this! 
So now you have seen the new merchandise!  We hope to see all of you on the road in June! Until next time!

People We Know Who Should Be Famous Part 2

Hey everyone! It has been a while since we have spoken to you all so I thought I would share with you  a few more artist that we know that are really quite good.  Read, listen, and enjoy! 

First up we have a singer/songwriter from the Atlanta GA area named Timothy Walker.  He goes by the name of Threadbare Brother and he is just damn good.  He graciously set us up with a house show last August and has recently come out with a new album and you should totally listen to it because its amazing! Check out Threadbare Brother HERE!


Next we have the masterful Dallas Jones.  Dallas is from back home (the great state of Missouri!) and is just an all around good guy.  His music really represents the Ozarks well and his new album American Weekend is a must have! Go give it a listen RIGHT HERE.

Now to some local Boston flavor.  Tumbleweed Company.  We played a show with these guys a few months back and were blown away by the musical greatness we heard!  They just recently added a female vocalist to the mix and you can catch a full band set or an acoustic set.  Whichever one you see, you won't be disappointed! Listen and "Like" Tumbleweed company HERE.

These three acts are phenomenal so don't hesitate to check them out, you won't regret it!
