AUSTIN AND OTHER SHOWS PAUSED

We have cancelled all of our shows in Austin during SxSW week and are holding off on scheduling additional shows for the immediate future. Tough call but seems like the right decision. Our thanks to so many who scheduled us at their showcase or party. We hated to see those go.

With luck, we will set a course for the release of our now complete new album and have some good news on that soon. Thanks to all who have reached out. Best to all.
