Hitting the Reset Button...

They say you can survive in the current music landscape if you have 1,000 true fans. We are going to put that to the test. You know we don't ever look at anyone as "fans". That is just weird to us. What we do know is that there are a handful of friends that have supported us like family. Those are the relationships we want to foster. We are hoping that our "casual" fans/friends will step up into a deeper relationship with the band and our community.

The fact is that some of you are our family/church/therapists/mechanics/inn keepers and therapists...yes I know we said that twice;) Being a full-time musician requires full-time "fans". Our goal isn't to sell a million records. Our goal is to have some sort of impact on your life. Musically, personally...wherever we can. If you get that and long for community in the truest sense of the word...then tell your friends that want the same. Get off your ass and come out to a show. Come break bread with us and eat a meal before/after we play. Being on the road sucks without that level of interaction. There is too much sacrifice.

Honestly, JT and I are old. LOL. Ancient in music terms. JT knows Jesus...personally...I've seen a picture. It would be so much easier for us to just "retire". But there is a part of us that still believes we have something to say and that there are a few of you out there that want to listen. We look at bands like The Lumineers and long for people to connect to our songs like that. We are tired of being jealous and sitting on the outside saying how much better we think we are. That is bullshit.

So...we have decided to put everything on the line and have an open and honest relationship with you. We want to be the real, broken, compassionate, depressed, optimistic people we are:)

2013 will be the beginning of something incredible or the end of something mediocre. We are cautiously optimistic that we can find the few, the proud, the mar...wait...wrong folks. Leave your swords at home and bring your lives to us so we can share ours with you.

Love you all...
Brant, JT
