Hello friends... we recently played the 10th Annual What's Up Awards show at the Wild Buffalo, and were stoked to win Best Up Close and Personal (live band) in Bellingham for 2010.

We hope you can come. Many more shows are being booked currently. Also we are set to begin recording our third record very shortly, more information about that soon.

We are excited to announce the release of our second full length, "TIME & PRESSURE," which is set to be released on July 17. We plan to celebrate the occassion with a Record Release Show/Party at Maritime Herritage Park. The evening starts at 6PM with an opening set by Cara Alboucq. We will also be giving away FREE ice cream from Mallard. It is a special Keaton flavor (blueberry banana) so get there early to ensure you get a scoop.
The following day, we leave for a brief west coast tour. Our tour, although not completely booked, is going to be super fun. We still have a few spots to fill, if you have any ideas, please hit us up... and stay tuned to our facebook/twitter for more frequent updates and last minute news once we are on the road... Lastly, we were recently profiled in the July issue of Whats Up, you can check that out on the internet right here. thank you for all your support, we are stoked to see all homies! -KC

We are booking some dates for the end of July along the west coast. We are excited to hit the road again and see all our homies. We will be touring in support of our newest release TIME AND PRESSURE, which is a collection of nine songs (plus two covers) written by William Jennings (our bass player). we are very proud of these tunes and the progress we've made on them so far. we have enlisted the support of some talented friends (cara, chrystal and wyatt) adding instrumentation we've never had before like cello and mandolin...anyways tour is going to be short but sweet, our rough routing is as follows: 7/15 Bellingham 7/16 Seattle/Oly 7/17 Portland 7/18 Eugene/Grants Pass 7/19 Chico/ Eureka 7/20 Sacramento 7/21 Santa Cruz 7/22 LA/LB 7/23 Simi 7/24 Moorpark 7/25 SB 7/26 Ventura - Billy O's 7/27 Oakland/SF 7/28 Berkeley/SF 7/29 Portland- Ash Street 7/30 La Grande OR 7/31 Seattle Aug 1 BHAM ... we will let you know as dates are confirmed.
MARCH 6 2010
First and most importantly our (primary) drummer (and drum major) JD has recently had a benign brain tumor removed and is recovering from that in southern California. Please send him your thoughts and prayers. We hope he gets better soon. We miss him.
We have begun the process of recording a new batch of songs. These songs are (our bass player) William Jennings' tunes, some of which have been kicking around for years. We are excited for you to hear them. We have a handful of shows coming and lots more in the works so stay close...
NOVEMBER 16 2009 IT LOOKS LIKE WE MADE IT
After a month out on the road (the longest we've ever done) we have made it safely back to Bellingham. We would like to thank everyone who showed us hospitality along the way, we could not have done this without you. We'd also like to thank all the bands we played with and everyone who helped us get a show or came to a show. We had a really amazing time. Unfortunately our van suffered along the way and we weren't able to break even with all the repair costs we incurred. If you have anything to spare towards our van fund, we would greatly appreciate it. If you would like to donate toward the cause you can do so here: Or you can help us out by buying something in our store where you can now buy shirts...
