We like sharks, robots, music, wii, touring and living larger than life on stage... and we don't think there's anything wrong with that. Most of all, we love making music and spending time with the most important ppl in our lives: our fans. We have the best kind, too.
Come to a show. We make our own art, produce our own music and pay the bill to run an 8-passenger van with a very large trailer... with the very important help of our fans, good friends, and most of all, our families that are kind enough to worry about insurance and noticing our tires are completely trashed. We have a huge sign that says THE HINT and two bubble machines. We're writing new songs tonight. We genuinely love to play our instruments and are geeks about them, except for me, who half-plays several instruments and likes to give political speeches on stage about how no one has health insurance. We are lucky enough to have the help of a handful of close friends that work hard for us for no other reason than they love us and our music as much as we appreciate their efforts. Oh, and we spend way too much time on computers. So do you, haha. Go Go Hintron 6000.

"Timeless music that can be as catchy as a single or as moody as something The Cure would release. I'm expecting big things from this band. Big things... definitely one of the most creative and hardworking bands on the Top Unsigned list." [THE HINT: Number 3 Top Unsigned Band] - Tim Towner, The Daily Chorus
"The Maryland based pop new wave act could hang in the same crowd as Jimmy Eat World and Weezer." - Dean, Kings of A&R
Expect updates and news in our blogs, bulletins and on our websites. We keep up daily (sometimes bi-weekly when we're on the road). The new album "
