1. How did you get your band name?
It was just a name we thought was cool, no special political or otherwise meaning behind it.

Murder By Death, The Appleseed Cast, Ryan Adams, Minus the Bear
4. If you could tour with any bands, past or present, who would they be and why?

5. Best food to eat on tour?
The local food, that is one of the best parts about tour. BBQ in the carolinas, Texas and the South. Pizza in Chicago and NYC, etc.

We think we've put something new out there, and that alone is worth hearing

We all have really bad facial tattoos. Thats why we have beards.
18. What is your assessment of the current state of radio? Do you think it's a place where your band could flourish?
Mainstream radio has been horrible for as long as we can remember. There are a lot of "locals only" or underground music focused stations here in the NW though

Porch time!
20. What kind of hidden talents do you have?
They wouldn't be very hidden if we told you. But we can summon witches |
