About Me

Dead delusions of grandeur have given rise to Tin Can Telephone. Dark and scary, yet optimistic, sometimes serious with a flaky pastry crust. Self-indulgent and unapologetic, these young men continue to surprise themselves. This all-inclusive outfit will have you breaking windows, reaching for your lover, crying for your mother and spilling over with aural elation all within a single set. To the brink of emotional explosion, you will Swell.
