Hello everyone, it's been a while since we've posted any news regarding the band, so here's an update. During the summer, Not Today reached #1 on CashBox magazines all Indie picks chart. The song hung on to the #1 spot for 3 weeks and was in the top 10 for 10 weeks.

We've also been working on some new material with Producer Vic Levak over at Hush studios. The new material is a little edgier and the production is stellar. The two new songs are called Turn Off Your Mind and Hurt Like I Do. We should be posting these new tunes, as well as re recorded versions of Not Today and Scene From Our Lives, within the next few weeks.. so keep your eyes and ears peeled for these new tunes.
