Hey!  There's been so much cool stuff going on with go ahead and say it the past couple weeks, that I have to summarize. We've charted at #25 (#5 on the NW Charts) at KEXP this week. KEXP's Program Director Kevin Cole called it one of his "favorite new records." Thank you!  Chris Travis, who hosts my all-time favorite NW music show "The Young and the Restless" on 107.7 The End has been playing it regularly, too!

We're currently featured in the November podcasts of Amplifier Magazine, Three Imaginary Girls and Shots Ring Out.

And finally, distribution!  Well, sort of. You can buy the EP online in at least 4 places now (see right). It's also in more than a dozen stores in Washington, Idaho and Montana.
