These should help keep things cool at SXSW next week.
We’re playing three shows at this year’s SXSW. We figured one show a day is the right amount. That should leave us plenty of time to get exercise, eat right and get good rest while we’re in Austin.
Our official showcase is on Saturday at the Whiskey Room and we’re playing two day parties. One party on Thursday and one on Friday. Hope to see you all there!

Treat your ears right. Listen to our new album. ‘Tis now streaming.
