IN THE STUDIO/REHEARSAL SPACE

Starting next month, we will begin the process of recording our newest material. It is looking like the record will contain five to six songs that we’ve written over the past year and a half. Many of these songs have been performed live and some have not. 

The title of the album is yet to be named. More to come!

Looking For A New Guitarist

After discussing our future plans, I am sad to say that we'll be parting ways (temporarily) with our guitarist, Corey Cruse. In no way was this parting ended in bad terms. It's a mutual understanding of what everybody wants to do. We've had an awesome trio and have released a record together, played some shows and had the opportunity to play alongside some great musicians here in this city.

Corey has been getting involved in some newer projects that are definitely worth checking out.

With that said, we are looking for a guitarist to move forward with. We are looking for someone who is looking to record his/her ideas on this new record and to play shows. Auditions will be held next week. Please reach out to us here if you are interested or know of someone interested.

Thanks! Samson

The US Mint Museum here in New Orleans video recorded our set and posted it online. This will be taken down soon, so we will have the footage available for download soon!

Alec and I share a birthday celebration with a difference of two years. He will be 30 and I will be 28. We will be performing with NOLA Greats Ras and Trach from their respected projects, Oscillation Communications and MC Trachiotomy.

Looking forward to making magic!

After taking a necessary month off from performing. We'll be getting back into rehearsing in July to prepare for two shows in August.

We're going to be joining one of my personal favorite musicians here in New Orleans, Ras from Oscillation Communications. I've had numerous discussions with him and first got a chance to hear his music at Noizefest. The one thing I can appreciate out of a musician is someone who is humble and levelheaded, but passionate and talented at the same time. Ras has it all. It's a privilege to be sharing the stage with him. There's a lot to be learned from him.

Currently, one show is booked, but we're in the midst of finalizing another with a special musician guest on the bill with us.
