We’ve been recording “The Golden Room EP” very slowly. So I know we said we’d have an EP by mid-summer, but we’ll have to push that approximate date back to September or so. It’s better anyway; we don’t want to over-saturate, sell ourselves short etc. Gotta make this good. 

We said we wouldn’t play Portland until August and it was true. But we do have some other things happening, mostly in Maine. We were asked to play Dispatch Magazine’s stage at Kahbang in August, which is DOPE. We’re also playing Arootsakoostik in New Sweden (six hours away?) on July 9 and hitting Bangor on the way for an awesome bill that Sasha and Chris from When Particles Collide put together. Here’s the “event” for that. We’re also playing at the Oak and the Ax (our favorite place ever, forever) on July 28th with wonderboys Brenda (to whom we were runner-up in the Portland Phoenix’s “Best Indie Act” poll) and seven(?)-piece Gabe Birnbaum-led New York pop outfit Boy Without God, who’re both great, though I may dispute the tenability of the latter’s metaphysics (unless he really is an all-out nihilist, in which case I’ll let it go). And then we’re playing a bunch more shows but I’ll tell you about them later!
