Benefit show with Deer Tick
We’re playing a great big show with Deer Tick on Wednesday August 10th. It’s a benefit for The Tommy Brull Foundation. The event will be held at Mulcahy’s Music Hall in Wantagh, Long Island. If you’re traveling from New York City, the club is located right across the street from the LIRR train station in Wantagh. Come out to support a great cause, and get to see an intimate performance by Deer Tick the nite before they headline a massive show at Pier 54 in Manhattan.

West Coast Wrap-up & Homecoming Show in NYC
We’re back from the West Coast! Here’s some video footage of us performing on Good Day LA. We were thrilled to share this morning television segment with a gallery of esteemed street artists who, like us, had journeyed cross-country for their West Coast debut.
Seattle was perhaps the highlight of the tour. The venerable KEXP hosted us for an interview where we performed 4 songs live-in-the-studio . The radio station captured some great photos of our visit as well.
To celebrate our return to New York City, we’re playing a show at Pianos on Thursday June 9th. We hit the stage at 9:30PM. Mark your calendars and be there to welcome us home!
