Sounds Like"The band’s road-tested chops and lemons-into-lemonade demeanor appears better served for taking the long way there — perhaps around or over the mountain — instead of barreling through or moving said mountain by sheer force alone... Beautifully crafted call-and-response bits of songwriting that blend into joint harmonies."
-- Chicago Innerview

"Off-kilter indie-pop, which packages the emotional slow-burn of Death Cab For Cutie with the unhinged glee of The Dismemberment Plan."
-- Shepherd Express, Milwaukee

"So, what does this indie-dance-pop supergroup actually sound like? Words like 'epic,' 'grand,' 'powerful,' 'huge' and 'wowey-wow-wow-wow' spring to mind upon seeing their live show... Hanke and Jones harmonize in a way that causes chills to run along the audience’s collective neck. The lyrics are poetically vague, but endlessly singable. This clearly is the work of people who know exactly what they are doing."
-- Chicago Daily Herald

"The group shows it is a force to be reckoned with on 'West,' a track complete with the intertwined voices of Hanke and Jones. The breakdown features a vocal tete-a-tete between (them), with the rest of the band snapping back into action and climaxing with a subdued-yet-effective solo from Wills. On 'I'm A Song from the Sixties,' drummer Nate Lanthrum keeps the train moving with some hi-hat trickery. Complimenting Lanthrum is the cascading guitar work from Hanke and Wills, who even throw in some muted chords toward the end of the tune, reminiscent of Andy Summers from the Police. (KYMM) combines keen technical skill (Jones is a classically trained pianist) with raw fire power. However, the group does not bombard the listener with either. They play both sides perfectly, and show promise."

Hello KYMM,

Can't wait for the CD! Trying to flex work/reality to give me the time to come see you.

I've been falling asleep on the way home to MKE from Northern IL locations FAR too often lately. You're up here playing, I'm down there workin' and the reverse....

Keep up the good work and great music!

Hey! How are you?

My fiance is in a band called Open Skies (formerly 3 Days Risen)

They're really good & they're trying to get out there. I thought I would share them with you because you like good music. Here is their link, I think you might like them. :)

www. myspace. com/openskiesmusic

They recorded these songs at David Teagarden's studio. He is a Grammy winning producer and played with Bob Segar. Open Skies has played with Warren Barfield and Paul Wright.

God Bless!

Love Laura

I should see you at Springtime Harmony, if they let my old arse in. Hopefully, I shall see you there. If not I live 5 minutes from there, gimme a call and we can do soemthing after or before.
Kellie





Apr 20 2008 11:44 AM

i hope there's some awesome rockford shows planned for this summer! I've missed out while at school, and after this school year I'm in dire need of a live music dance party. :)


Also, at what point during elb prom was that picture taken?

So, according to you guys the show at reggie's is 18+ and according to ohmyrockness. com it's 21+

I was hoping you could tell me for sure which it is, because it's going to make a big difference for me.
