In five, ten, fifteen years you're racing through all your old CD’s and you find an Ellington record so you decide to give it one last spin, for memories sake. All of a sudden every moment, good or bad comes flooding back like it was just yesterday. We make music in the hope to make you feel better when things aren’t so good, the soundtrack to your life if you will. In 2002 Dashboard Confessional played MTV unplugged and while going through high school I was shown a clip of “remember to breatheâ€. I remember sitting there captivated, this guy was singing to me everything I wanted to say, his lyrics were speaking for me when I couldn’t speak. It felt as though for one reason or another I had to hide away in my room for hours, days, weeks just to find the perfect lyrics, melody and story to convey to whoever it was about, just how bad I felt about the situation or how happy something made me feel. Two years later we find ourselves with more opportunities and chances than ever before although so many of you will be reading this for the first time without ever having heard of us, I feel like the people we have met, the places we have seen and the songs we have sung have prepared us for whatever comes our way.
We’ll be recording an EP in Atlanta, Georgia in April/May and we would love for your record label to release it with us. We would love to spend months on the road touring, driving, late nights, meeting new people so please email
[email protected] if you would like to book or help book us a tour. Thanks for taking the time to check out our music, it means alot.
Love Jake and Michael

"The band's debut, an 8-song DEMO entitled The Joy We Keep In, is layered with crisp acoustic strumming and low, clean-cut vocals, all backed by light drumming - it plays like Dashboard Confessional at Chris Carraba's most sensual moments and early Jimmy Eat World, before Jim Adkins discovered why he has some of rock's best vocals" -AbsolutePunk.Net
