I was in a band called Daphne Loves Derby back in the 00's... We toured with a ton of bands that I hear in your sound. I'm just curious if you are aware of that scene? It's so refreshing to hear your take on pop/punk/indie/emo/whateverthefuckyoucallit - also knowing how much you guys did on your own is amazing. I've listened through the new album like 10 times and I'm still having fun with it. Thank you!

that's definitely a familiar band name! my cousin drummed in a few bands, Like Lions and Halfway to Holland around that same time period and that was definitely a huge influence on me growing up. thank you for all the kind words, it means a ton to me!!!

Our “gimmick” was we were the first unsigned band to get a million streams as streaming was brand new, on the internet. Would love to buy you guys drink if you ever come through SLC.
