We have T-shirts for sale! We'll have them on the site soon, so forget about the cold - you'll look amazing when you walk around town in one of these things. E-mail us if you want one right away, otherwise check back with us soon.
We have a song on the new Whole Lotta Shakin' Comp-Pile-Lation. Recorded at the same time we cut "Bugle Ann" and "You Made Me Look Like Keith" for Lost Weekend, we bulldoze through a live version of "Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin On." You can find out more about it on our links page. Click on Witr.
We filmed two songs in NYC with the amazing director Lee Chabowski. Lee filmed us performing Goin Mad & In A Place Like This. We'll let you know the release date as soon as we find out.
We're backing up Bo Diddley Feb 14th at the Montage Grille. Todd and Greg wrote The Night Bo Diddley Came To Town (it's on In The Spotlight) after the last time we backed Bo . Should be a fun night!
