If you could only read this, you'd know how dope we are. For the past year, we've played frats, house parties, bars, clubs, the works. Pretty much everything you could expect for a hobbyist/amateur band. If you have been to any of them, you know the score:
We have precious few "fans" who hear about our music and follow us.
We have gone from a stodgy, wooden live act, to something that puts the average folks to shame, and some professionals too.
We have no recordings, no merchandise, no brand, no visibility.
So, what you are about to witness (those lucky nobodies who are reading this blog) is the attempt to transform our humble band into a Seattle mainstay. To paraphrase the Six Million Dollar Man, we have the technology. We are recording a four-song EP as we speak, and our live show speaks for itself.
What we are betting on is that, once we have something recorded we can hang our hat on, everyone else will be able to catch up with what we're all about. You won't be in the dark as this happens. There are videos, interviews, live recordings, sneak previews, upcoming shows, every kind of media you could want to consume, we are making available.
So get ready, you are about to see a band on the cusp of professionalism, a transition phase from nobodies, to somebodies. Or possibly, to nobodies. It's possible none of this will work. But also, just maybe, you can catch a glimpse of something in its infancy.
That's what this blog is about.
See you soon.
