Here is some of the nice press we got when we went down South. The people were lovely, as well as the weather. Good times all round.
"...an all-femme Massachusetts act that fortifies its Sarah Records twee lineage with humor and humility." - Chapel Hill Independent Weekly Pick of the Week
"The music shifts from Liz Phair/Mary Timony-styled acoustic ballads and minor-key rockers to more digital, synth-pop musings. The reworking of Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart" is a highlight."
- Charleston City Paper

Please check it out. I use a lot of exclamation points.

Christy and I are in hot pursuit of a Southern Rock tour right now, into the land of Of Montreal, Elf Power, REM, Band of Horses..and we already have a gig in Asheville (Friday May, 23rd). We're going for Savannah, Atlanta, Athens, and Chapel Hill/Durham...maybe Knoxville...maybe a lot of places! Everyone has been so friendly so far that we've talked to. 10 bucks says I'm gonnna want to move to Asheville. :)
Also a HUGE thank you to Boothnavy, who HAND BUILT a FUZZ petal for me. You are awesome. I am testing it out this week. And will record ASAP.
We are on our way to Europe, Germany exactly, November 16 - 21st. Look for dates in Hamburg, Berlin, and the like. Awesome.
Well, actually not exactly. More like Kiel (16th), Hannover (20th), and Hildesheim (19th). Nonetheless..excitement.
WAIT. Does ANYONE know German? Shit. SHIT.
There will be a feature out about us in the Boston Phoenix. I'll link to it when it comes out. Even if they say mean ass things. Actually, especially if they say mean ass things.
(uh, they put us on the cover.
oops.)
We have a record for sale.
We are included on the current Compound 440R compilation. A special thanks to Karen from UV Protection and David from The Juliet Kilo for asking us to contribute.
