Maxwell’s was a blast!

Seriously- one of the best experiences we’ve had playing a show.  A huge thank you goes out to anyone that came out to support us!

Here’s some snaps taken by Kevin Carafa (click to enlarge):

Record Release Weekend Starts Tomorrow!

Here’s a look at what we’ve been up to the past couple days.  We could not be more excited on how everything came out : ) 

• All of the kickstarter stuff is ready including the basement demos  and Leah’s guitar.  We won’t post a picture of that though cuz it’s a surprise…
• After much editing, we made a sweet double sided insert with lyrics to all the songs on the 7 inches plus the digital download along with some other info.   You’ll have to pick one up to see that ; )  Don’t forget to redeem the download!
• Here’s the sleeves we painted for the first 25 of the 500 run.  We’re dubbing these “The Friends and Family Package.”  They will be limited to these 25. 

• With that same design, we decided to get some shirts together.  They’re pretty crusty, but we’re gonna sell them for cheap and we had fun making them.  If you look closely there’s a subtle “m” and “p” on either side of the dragonfly, hummingbird, firebird, whatever-you-wanna-call it thing.   We’ll have a few colors available.  Here’s light blue on navy:

Welp, back to the hive for us- still a bunch to do.  Hope to see you tomorrow, or at some other point this weekend!  In the meantime, head on over to the TUNES section to hear “Ocean.”
