Our drummer made us do an escape room for his birthday and honestly aside from the AI minecraft backdrop it was a pretty good time

This is the most anyone has trolled my music aside from my grandma 😂

It’s also a WILD description. I mean technically distortion is involved

One week out! We'll be playing an extended set with some new material that's we've been cooking up.

Don't miss what may well be our only Asheville show this year!

We're coming back to The Rooster Gastonia for the Brewstock Pre-Party! Mark your calendars for 9/26 and get ready to Pre-Come!

If we had a nickel for every time we contributed a song to a remix album and it was picked as the lead single, we’d have two nickels.

Anyway, get hyped for our upcoming collaboration with @sparralimb.bsky.social and @acklenwalker.bsky.social!

You write one song that's largely in 5/4 and suddenly the whole band realizes they don't know how to count

Breaking my drummer’s brain with a syncopated 7/8 groove
