Having served as a support act for BJM, BRMC, the Make-Up and the White Stripes, the boys have traveled across the US and Europe on several occasions and even served as an impromptu back-up band for Neil Haggerty. Their songwriting process has been described as intuitive and emotional, yet systematically thought out, with one prevailing message--celebrate your problems in order to get beyond them...
