News From The Nest

What a summer it was!!!  Our van Wilhelmina took us more than 22,000 km's around BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba.  We played at 6 festivals including the Mission Folk Festival and Fire and Water Festival in Lac du Bonnet outside of Winnipeg.  We made many new friends, saw so many amazing bands, visited many a new town, hiked beautiful trails and were very inspired for the future!  We are so happy to be doing what we are doing and are so THANKFUL that many of you have been there with us, rooting for us and coming to our shows, sharing our posts, buying our albums and merch and supporting good live music!  

We have a few big announcements to make.  First is that we will be back in studio in October with the amazing Winston Hauschild of Little Island Studio's to work on a 5 song EP due to be released in May of 2017.  Second, Ari and I have decided that to move to the beautiful town of Salmon Arm!  We have made some amazing and beautiful connections in Vancouver but nature is calling!  We will be working hard to establish a community of musicians in Salmon Arm.  If anyone has contacts out there feel free to shoot us a message, we'll be starting from scratch once again and it's a bit scary but also a very exciting challenge.

The summer has started!  It looks like it will be a very busy one for us with nearly every weekend filled with a festival or show.  Our spring was also very busy and we were so lucky to have seen a lot more of this beautiful province than we have before.  We made a trip to the sunshine coast and fell in love with the folks in Powell River.  We hung out on the island and saw a few ancient forests near Port Renfrew and Port Alberni.  We then played at the Elevate the Arts Festival in Courtenay and had such a blast!

We just got back from our CD release tour "On The Dusty Trail" with our dear pals No Mothers.  What a gift it was for us to spend 12 days on the road with these guys.  All told we played 11 shows, 2 farmers markets, 1 radio show, busked here and there and drove about 3300 km's, including some pretty dusty trails indeed.  Thanks everyone who made this tour awesome!  

Now we are gearing up for another tour!  We are off to the sunshine coast for a week and then down to Courtenay for Elevate the Arts Festival!
