"Only An Impulse" is now out and available on CD through us or Drugged Conscience Records. You can also listen to the whole album on Bandcamp for FREE or purchase a digital copy there. I've also finally gotten the album up on Spotify for all of you freaks that like to use that thing, although don't listen to their BS about how the artists are getting paid. That's definitely a lie.

Some rough plans are in the works for a trip to Toronto in the near future, and I plan to make / finish making a music video sometime soon for one of the songs off Only An Impulse. Sarah and I began shooting for a couple of them many months ago and I think it's about time to do something with it. For now, live off this and stay tuned. Thanks!

As I work on new Maribelle songs, Sarah and I will be playing our first show with a new side project, currently titled O'er the Waves, on Sept. 26th at Cafe Mustache in Chicago. This band will feature myself on drums, and her as the primary vocalist and piano player. I'm pumped!
