Today we get to finally take our first step as a public entity. Production has been a long, incredible endeavor from the beginning and we can’t wait for what’s in store this year.

We are thankful for the incredible reception we’ve already received, and as a token of appreciation we are releasing our first music video early on YouTube along with the presave link in the comments.

The song fully releases on streaming platforms on January 30th

We are open to booking for summer 2026 and are looking forward to the year to come.

We record our last two songs on Aug 23/24th and will release them soon after. We'll be posting the remainder of merch we have left in the available sizes in the next few days, so if you wanted a shirt and we have your size hit us up and we'll figure out a way to get you taken care of.

There really isn't a good way to say this other than to put it plainly: this is where our journey as a band ends. It's unfortunate that it has come to such an abrupt and indelicate stop. This is not how we wanted to say goodbye. We had initially planned to record our last two songs and release them between now and our final shows that we had booked. Apparently, that didn't work for our guitarist Evan, and so we have been forced to call it quits here and now, instead of being able to play for any of you one last time.

Rylan, Chris, and Ben will still be recording and releasing our last two songs, "Malice at the Palace" and "Mooseknuckle," and will keep the page updated on when to expect those releases. The last three shows we had been booked for are still happening and are loaded with killer bands that deserve all the support, and we would love to see you at them. Fried Fest is on August 9th, and Q-a-palooza has an August 16th date at The Hoosier Dome in Indianapolis, IN, and August 17th at Madison Live in Covington, KY.

We truly appreciate every single person who came out to a show, streamed our songs, bought some merch, shared our posts, or threw down with us. The life of this band hasn't ever been smooth, but it has been worthwhile to share in those experiences. We have nothing but love for the bands in Indy's music scene that gave us opportunities or advice, as well as for every promoter who took a chance on us and let us perform. Thanks again for everything and for making it to the end of this.
