The Bitter Inks

About Me

the band was formed at the end of 2005 out of ann arbor, mi with one foot over the ypsi border. a pop rock project focusing on melodies that have just as much sentiment as the lyrics, combined with a steam engine pulse. taking influences from the early folk and soul era to the tube flexing warm rhythms of beautiful unprocessed rock & roll.
10/31/08 we are finished with the final mixes and the cd is currently in the mastering house. it will be shipped off to get pressed there after. we expect a release date this december. for those who have asked, thank you for your patience. please check back soon for cd release show date(s) and further details.
