It’s here! Our new album! All the tracks! On all the platforms and on our music page, along with the liner notes.
You can buy your very own downloadable copy on Bandcamp, too. And come to our album release party at the Funk N Dive this Saturday, March 7 (9-Midnight, 21+, $5) and you can cheer us on as we play it down live — and also go home with your own CD.
We are so excited. Thanks for listening and sharing in the celebration!
I’m not sure how else to introduce this except to just put it right here:
It’s our first ever single, our first ever original song, and a diversion from jazz-ish into something else. There’s a longer backstory, but basically Adam wrote this song, who brought it to the band, who encouraged Caryn to sing it (she’ll still insist that Adam sing the demo version in some live shows), which led to recording it with Scott, who encouraged us to put it out. And now here it is. It’s about real, literal occurrences (even the heart-on-plane reference), but it all distills down to this message that we can all break without being broken. We’re all in a continual process of healing. Sometimes you write something for a specific someone and then realize it’s for everyone, maybe especially yourself.
We’re out in the world this weekend: duo show at Pendry in Park City this evening and a trio show at Two Bit in Ogden on Saturday evening. Check out the gig calendar. We’ll give this its post-release live debut.
Oh, right, almost forgot: Broken is the first in a string of singles for the upcoming album.
Sometimes we play in quiet basements with fancy equipment and a few close friends.
And later the same week we wear Santa hats and play for a theater full of enthusiastic audience members.
And this Saturday we close out our year of gigs with a trio set at the Two Bit Bistro, 6-8p on December 20. We’ll pull out some seasonal flavors and some of our own perennial favorites, and we’ll tell you more about what we’ve been up to. Enjoy the lights, good food and drink, and the lights of downtown.
We’ve been in the planning stages for a long time, but just yesterday when we started texting each other about what snacks we were going to bring and which microphone we chose, that’s when it felt very real.
Not to give away surprises, but to show just how big of a deal this is, take a look at Diva carrying gear.
What would instigate such a thing? We’ll just leave this here for you to wonder and anticipate. You can come pester us at gigs coming up, too.
Okay, so we’re a little late. But here’s the first thing we played together in weeks, live from the Gandy Dancer stage. We probably hadn’t played this in a couple years, so it was kind of a leap of faith to start with this, two weeks after the new year.
We’ll see people again out in the world on Saturday, January 28th, from 4-7pm at Compass Rose Lodge for their Apres Ski Series.
