City Weekly Music Awards – Vote! by fictionist January 27, 2012

There has always been a special place in our musical heart for the local scene and it’s musicians.  In addition to supporting us over the years, City Weekly has been helping give voice and exposure to the great local talent that resides in Utah. That’s why we’re honored to be apart of the 2012 City Weekly Music Awards.  We’ll be playing Febuary 4 at The State Room in Salt Lake City (21+) along with Ryan Tanner, and Holy Water Buffalo.

Whether you’re able to attend the show or not, please go vote  for whichever act is your favorite on the online poll. (no registration required)

You can find more information about the show and RSVP on the Facebook event page.

We wanna know:
What’s the scene like in your town and who are some of your favorite local musicians?  Leave a comment below.

Holiday Cheer by fictionist December 24, 2011


A while back Stu and Brandon recorded an original Christmas song and released it on YouTube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-VxJh9aL0Q&hd=1. But we want everybody to own it, so we’re sending it out to our entire email list – signup to the right. We hope you’ll share it with all your friends!

2011 has been an amazing year thanks to you. And who KNOWS what’ll happen in 2012? With one year ending and a new beginning, here’s what we have on our minds:

Lots of Writing

spacer You may be wondering what we’ve been up to as a band. In a word, writing. We have something like 40 songs to choose from for the album, and we plan to record a ton of that for different releases. It’s kept us busy, which has (sadly) meant fewer shows and less blogging & such, but this first full album on Atlantic should make your ears pretty happy. We can’t wait to get into the studio, then release the album and get on the road to see you.

Holiday Cheer

Finally, we’re taking 10% off everything on our online store until the end of the year! Just use the Coupon Code THEREALTHING before January 1 to get the new EP or our posters, CDs & shirts for any music lover in your life — including yourself. It’s another way for us to say thank you for being so good to us.  Click here to browse the store.

New EP, writing, life by fictionist December 5, 2011

We’ve been away for a little bit.  Our sincere apologies.

Most of us have been in writing wonderland, which is a scary place sometimes, hence the lack of blog entries.  But I will also say that writing land has been an awesome place as well.  Robbie and Stu have been conjuring up some amazing tunes these days; Aaron as always has been coming up with some groovy beats; Brandon some wacky awesome sounds; and Jacob, well, maybe he’ll tell you in the next entry.

But truthfully, we are working hard on getting the songs ready to record our first full length album on Atlantic Records, and are sparing no expense, so be (very) excited.

On another exciting note, our EP was released on iTunes a week or so ago, and we also have a store where you can buy the physical copy as well as other merchandise, so feel free to take a gander.

We love you all dearly, and hope to see you all soon
