We're happy to be invited to play for the Folk Alliance Regional Midwest Official Showcase in St. Louis this October and with Red Tail Ring for the Great Lakes Acoustic Music Association in Kalamazoo this November! We audio and video recorded a weekend of performances this September and are using them to make a five song live EP with our new lineup! The CD will have a link to a Vimeo page where you will be able to watch videos that correspond with the songs on the album. Lukas is moving to St. Louis in October to start teaching at the Folk School of St. Louis, Seth is still living in Rockford, MI, Adam is in Goshen, IN and Sean is living in Fort Wayne. Our commute will be a little further to get together for shows, but that won't stop us from traveling and playing festivals, concert halls and house concerts! We're looking forward to the future and excited to continue bringing our original brand of Midwestern folk music to anyone and everyone who is willing to hear it!
