Enjoy Being Poisoned

Here's another new one off our album 'Everything'. One local 8-year-old raved in his review of it, "Brian should sing more manly like a rock singer." Not too shabby!

Everything I Wanna Be

12/16/2016

Here’s a new tune from our album ‘Everything’, available January 6th. It’s a special one to us. Eric wrote the bass lines, we filled in the rest during our first jam with them, and what you hear on this final track is more or less what we came up with together that night...the truest representation of our sound as a band in that moment and now a sort of guidepost for our songwriting moving forward. We’d love for you to give it a listen.

Everything

It's an album. For you. By us. Our first. Finally.

On Friday, January 6, come grab a copy at our show at Boot & Saddle.

A Little Bit Goes A Long Way

11/30/2016

If you're at all able and so inclined, please consider donating to Eric's family or simply share this page with others. Every little bit can make a huge difference in the lives of his incredible wife and kids. Thank you.

Don't Let The Bugs Eat You

11/21/2016

This is our only recording of the full band performing Eric's last complete song. It's a very early, rough rendition, but we wanted to get it out there. He wrote it about his daughter Ella, and it turned into something special, we think. Eric's solo demo version, with clear lyrics and beautiful instrumentation, can be listened to here.

Our MilkBoy Set

11/15/2016

Hey friends, we've uploaded audio of our MilkBoy set from last month's show. The audio's not great, but Eric's performance was. Which shouldn't come as a surprise because he truly played every show like it was his last. If you've got 30 minutes, please give it a listen.

Eric

11/5/2016

It’s with profoundly heavy hearts that we say goodbye to Eric. He left us Thursday morning, and it hasn’t fully set in yet. We're still a bit dazed. Some of you may have only known him through our music, but to know him personally was to know a passionate, genuine, kind, creative, honest, inquisitive soul, always eager to teach and be taught, and always pouring every ounce of love he had to give into the lives of his family and friends. All of these qualities and more were and continue to be reflected in his incredible wife, children, music, and photography. From our band’s perspective, he joined as the final piece of our musical puzzle three years ago, and every week since that first session with him, he surprised and delighted us, adding and creating more musically than we had ever hoped for. It’s extremely difficult to imagine how we’re going to continue without him. We don’t know how exactly, but we know that we will, and we know that Eric would not want it any other way.

Goodbye Gene, Hello MilkBoy

9/3/2016

Rest easy, Gene. You were both too wild and too sweet for this earth. The world lost our namesake this week, yet it gained a Gene Wildest/Electric Six team-up at MilkBoy in Philly on October 4th. So there's that. All right, we know it can't completely ease our collective grieving, but it's a start, right? Get your tickets here. We're excited for this one.
