The Hero Dies In This One

There’s something magical about the mystery and suspense that’s born when you steer away from the predictable, and dabble into the unknown. Even if the outcome is less than extraordinary, the road...

The Trade-Off
There’s no question that the entire music landscape has shifted. Even in our relatively short career as a band/producers, there have been noticeable changes. And honestly, I think way more of them are for the better than for the worse. But the fact needs to be recognized that for the masses, music is a free commodity. People of our generation grew up with downloading music, the second they wanted...

On this day in Rolling Stone cover history…

OUR ALBUM IS OUT NOW!
Our debut, full-length album is out! It is probably the coolest thing I have ever felt to be able to go onto iTunes and see our album. As an unsigned artist, it is crazy the amount of stuff that goes into creating an album. I mean, I guess it’s crazy whether being signed or not… but it is ESPECIALLY CRAZY when you are unsigned. We wrote, recorded, produced, mixed and mastered every song on the...
