After a fun weekend in Wisconsin with our pals Architects of the Aftermath, we’re taking this weekend off. Thanks to Ahab’s Ghost for filling in at the last second and all the folks that came out to Frank’s Power Plant on Friday. Thanks also to Sunni Daze (of Moss Folk) for inviting us to be a part of his great party on Saturday.
Coming up on Friday, August 17th we’re going to be making one of our first trips to Columbus, OH in almost three years! We’ll be joining The Receiver, Moon High, and The Kyle Sowashes at Kobo for Josh Rae’s Turning 30 / Graduation / Going Away Party. Doors open at 8pm, show starts at 9. $5.00. 21+.

And for the big Cincy-related news: We’ve been invited to play this year’s MidPoint Music Festival, happening September 27-29 in Downtown Cincinnati and the Over-the-Rhine district. So far, the lineup includes Dinosaur Jr., Best Coast, Dirty Projectors, Cloud Nothings and many others. Tickets are available now at CincyTicket.com, but they’re going fast. All Venues during MPMF are 21+. We’ll update again once we know when and at what venue we’re playing.
Right off, thanks to everyone that checked us out this past weekend on our short tour with Velvet Elvis. We had a great time and enjoyed seeing so many of our friends again.
The first, yellowish-orange vinyl pressing of Spectra Spirit is SOLD OUT! If you didn’t get one, fear not! The second pressing is now available on multi-colored vinyl. Seriously, there’s at least six different colors available. Collect them all!

On the 3rd we’ll be at Frank’s Power Plant with our very good friends, Milwaukee thrashers Architects of the Aftermath.
