About Me

THE TRAGEDY:
Simply put, our music is about the human experience that is connection and passion. We play music that is not overly complicated and not overly simplistic we stay away from the excess of technicality and simplicity. Our music tells a story, one that intertwins with our own lives and the lives of the people that listen to and relate to our music. It tells a story of love and loss, and everything connected to it. From heartbreak to anger we play as much for us as we do for you. We scream to confront expectations of reservation and we scream because we hold nothing back, we bear it all. We play music with all our hearts and don't hold back for technicality or melody, we find those along our way through passion. Which is what our music is about, its about being human and about all the hurt, sadness, hope, energy, anger, and most importantly, love. The love of whatever you want and can love.
Feeling a connection with something. Anything. We fall in love with every person that we connect with and give us even a shred of themselves to us when we play. We play our hearts out until we can't speak or breath or bleed anymore. Just hoping to conjure any passion and emotion in another be it hope, or love, or anger, the important part is to feel something, anything. This is why we refuse stages if we can and anything else that creates a pretentious barrier between us and the people we are suppose to be connecting with. The closer we are to one another, the easier it is to break that barrier between watching and connecting. Music is art and essentially we are performance art, trying to help people and help ourselves, one show at a time. We live through expression and we express through our music.
We love you, you know who you are.
