Changes

So... we've been laying low since our last show at Bunk Bar in November and a lot has happened since that time, here's a few updates.

Kickstarter. We made our goal and THEN SOME! We were able to raise about 1500 through the support of all of our generous benefactors. A huge thank you to all who gave!

The record. We are in the final stages, mixing is coming up this next week and we are excited have Beau Raymond behind the mixing desk. He's worked with Devendra Banhart, Little Joy, Laura Gibson, Dave Depper, the list goes on and on! He's a great guy and we're really happy to work with him.

So here's the big news... Altered line-up. Corey and Lee have chosen to leave the band to pursue their own musical project Lee Corey Oswald We are proud they are following their hearts and we are all still great friends. We wish them the best, check out their tunes!

Richard, Talia, Chrissy, Michael and I are working on new songs, putting together some great ideas for the new year and we have great excpectations for the year to come. 2010 was incredible for us, touring the West Coast, making great new friends with people all over, Valentines Day Prom with Sallie Ford, playing with so many great bands here in Portland, flying out to New Jersey and performing on A Prairie Home Companion, we've been able to share many great things and we are pushing forward into 2011 with more ambition and hope than ever before. Thank you for all the love and support!

We are playing again on Jan 13th at Holocene w/Arch Cape and Yours! On drums will be Scott Magee (Loch Lomond, Y La Bamba, DJ Cooky Parker) and on piano Alan Singley will be joining us. (Its also the day before my birthday.... unofficial partytime!) It should be a great night and we'll be "unveiling" a couple of new songs!!

See you all soon
