We are so excited to announce that we will be opening up for Portland’s Blitzen Trapper on July 21st, at The Soapbox in Wilmington. We are so looking forward to it, as it will be our biggest gig yet.
In other news, our first outing in Chapel Hill was fantastic, we hope to be back soon.

Out of town shows and recording
Hello Everyone!
We’ve been on a hiatus from the studio for a couple weeks now, but it will be picking back up very soon. We already have one song completed, which we plan to release for free in the near future!
Also, we have shows in july at both The Local 506 and The Garage. Click the tour dates tab on the left to view the dates/buy tickets.
We <3 you, keep being beautiful!
This is the awesome flyer for our show tomorrow night at the soapbox. Our friend Karl Kuehn from Museum Mouth is the wonderful artist.
This flyer is for our first HEADLINING show ever, and we couldn’t be more excited!! It’s the first friday of the summer for high school students, and we have some incredible bands opening for us.
Also, we’re very close to having a new single done and releasing it. We love everyone who has supported us and listens to our music, you’re making our dream a reality <3
Kind words
“[Dylan Wilkinson] and the band tore through an energetic and elegantly moody set of indie rock fused with soaring melodies. While the music had an atmospheric, almost dreamy quality, it also merged catchy, pop aesthetics without leaning to much on them.”
Kind words from Brian Tucker of Star News. Check out the full article here:

Tonight is gonna be one of the greatest ever, like, in the history of the world. The absolutely incredible band Desert Noises is returning from Utah on their East Coast Tour to play a show with us at Satellite. It’s free and is gonna be awesome.
Also, we’ve been in the studio for the past few weeks. We almost have a new single finished up, and we’re trying to get our EP out to everyone over the next couple months. <3
The show with Dash, Rio Bravo, and our good buddies Heyrocco was amazing! around 200 in attendance, which is our biggest show so far. This month is already shaping up to be a big one. We’re playing a TWLOHA benefit on friday, and we have a BIG show announcement coming up! All pictures by Abby Oliver Photography and Third Sun Photography, check them out!
We love all of you who came out to the show, and we hope you continue to come. <3
They are here. Who is getting Comfort tomorrow!?
Come get a copy of our pals’ new cd at our show with them this Thursday at the Soapbox!!
