    I got tickets to two shows in Jan at the Commodore in Van. This band has some PJ vibes in that their sound is evolving and they mix up setlists quite decently. I may even go to the third if the first two shows are mixed up alot. Well worth diving into this band if you haven't yet

    Good for these guys playing at BST with Pearl jam.  So happy for them.

    So glad they're on the bill at BST Hyde Park.  Hopefully PJ gets to check them out and they bring them on tour at some point!  Such a great band. The pandemic killed some of their momentum, but hopefully a new album and tour will rekindle the flame.

    been heavily considering hitting the winnipeg show on the 16th. I had a ticket to the original date, then took a refund when the new date came up. I'm feeling a sense of future regret.

    Saw them last night in London for $30 at Camden Assembly with JJ Wilde. Warm up shows for Hyde Park. So glad I went to it. Literally the smallest venue I have seen a concert in and I have been to at least 400 different shows in my lifetime. Legitimately might have been 100 people there, that's how small this place was. I met some people who flew from Glasgow and Germany, respectively, just to see this intimate club show.

    They played an awesome full set of which I think we will be lucky to get 5-6 songs during their half hour Hyde Park set.

    Sounds like it was a great show.

    New single, Mercy, Mercy out June 7th!  I'm looking forward to getting some new music and possibly some tour dates from these guys.  I had my local show canceled in 2020 so hopefully they can get back to my area soon.

    Chris Koster (guitar, vox) has left the band. I didn't know this, but he's the brother of Tragically Hip long time road guy Billy Ray.

    I saw them last week and it was a great show as always!  I enjoy the new album but most of the songs sound similar to me, not many rockers on this one.  Still a solid effort.

    I saw them in Des Moines and Minneapolis back to back nights, and I'm heading down to KC next Friday to see them again.  Got a chance to chat with Brett at The Depot in Minneapolis before the show and he was a humble and down to earth guy.  I see these guys every chance I get.
