a place both wonderful and strange

Unfortunately due to some unforeseen circumstances, GUHTS won’t be able to play Aug 21. 🖤🖤 to them and hopefully we’ll join them soon.

Mama Doom F You Tammy! and B.A Miale are all still joining us at The Avalon Lounge Friday, and it’s still gonna get dark and weird really fast.

See you Friday in the trees.

It’s in the trees, it’s coming.

A night of deeply dark, deeply felt and really loud (even when it’s soft) sounds, next week, for our first actual band appearance upstate (Russ’s current and Laura’s old stomping grounds) at Avalon Lounge in Catskill, NY. Fri Aug 21, 8pm real time for doors.

We’re opening a night with our old old friends F You Tammy! and our new friends Mama Doom and GUHTS, bands we love and are thrilled to get to see AND share the stage with.

AND! after seeing B.A Miale work magic around town, we had to ask for similar visual magic at this show. A feast for the senses.

This is the last a place both wonderful and strange show this year so let’s make it loud, dark, cathartic. Lots of feelings to feel.

🔗 in bio. We still have a couple surprises up our sleeveless t-shirts left.
