CMJ and a Preliminary Tour
Hi.
We’ll be playing the annual CMJ Music Marathon in NYC on 10.19.11. There will be two shows — one early and one late. Details forthcoming.
We’ll begin our trek to The Empire State next Saturday in Atlanta. Then we’ll do 3 shows in the Carolinas before playing our showcases. With any luck we’ll add a few other shows on our way back home. Should that happen, you’ll be among the first to know. Info about the shows can be found HERE.
