Road Ready/Vinyl Victory

We've got some things a-movin'!

Our longest tour yet, a 3-weeker is in the works right now. It's gonna start in early August and take us through the South, up to Boston, over to Chicago and back down. Can't wait to play with our old friends and make new ones. We'll also have new music in tow...on wax!!! That's right, a new vinyl release as well as a live, sneak peek of new tracks that you'll be able to catch on an upcoming album. We'll have some new shirts and other goodies, too.

More details real soon.

Feast Your Eyes AND Your Ears...

We're uber-excited to be posting our first-ever music video. Beautifully shot by Brian Macaione and directed by Charles Sutter at an undisclosed Orlando locale, the video captures four confused looking dudes messing with a lot of potentially dangerous equipment they obviously don't know how to properly operate. In retrospect maybe we should have included a disclaimer...


Great Deceivers "Silver Thumbs" from Brian Macaione on Vimeo.

Please feel free to like the video, tell your friends about it and embed it everywhere you can! We worked hard to produce it and want to bring it to as many eyes as possible.

We returned a couple of days ago from our mini-tour of Florida with our friends Basements of Florida. We did a lot of karaoke, saw a lot of old friends, crashed a Motel 6 and played to great folks. Couldn't ask for anything more. In the midst of all the fun that was had, we still managed to capture a bunch of photos. We pared the selection down to the best of the best, the most memorably-ridiculous, the premier pickings. They're all conveniently located in a photo album via our Facebook page OR  you can witness the bunch in all of their glory on our Tumblr (if ya don't follow us, ya should!).

We're also very excited to announce that today, for the first time, our recent full-length release, Seasons In Reverse, has been made 100% stream-able. That's right. The whole record is now listen-able for free via our Bandcamp. We encourage you to take this opportunity to check out some tracks you may not have heard yet, you never know when you'll find a new favorite.


Thanks for reading up, more exciting news to come very soon. As always, sign up for our mailing list if you want the most up-to-date headlines.
