This thing is still here?? I hate this thing! But so it goes...

Tour has been awesome and we'll only 11 days away from being home. It's hard to believe that 5 weeks ago we rolled up on a Dolly Parton nightmare in Nashville and showed those snakes how to wipe it right. Lots of miles (estimated 9,000 thus far) and lots of great shows. While I pine away my time on the computer Melissa is as we speak preparing our new album, You are Having a Wonderful Time, for our radio campaign across the nation (or, perhaps she is playing Wii w/ Cousin Charlie). Either way, those of you in far away places that would like to hear us on the radio more, we're seeing to it. Thanks so much to everyone who has come out and supported the band and made us feel like we are special; we love you. Also, big thanks to the VT contingent for the support at SolarFest and for coming to the rest of our shows throughout this week up in New England... you can always count on a Vermonter!!!

We miss you CO, CA, UT, MI, IL, NE, MN, NM, AZ, TX, MO, KS, OH, TN, and NC and will see you all again real soon!!!!

We have been on the road for just over a week now and it has been wonderful! Summer is always a great time to get out there and see the country, reconnect, and enjoy life. Thanks to all the friends and fans in NC, TN, MO, KS and TX for coming out and supporting the band so far (and future thanks to all of you to come). Also, this just in… new album, You are Having a Wonderful Time, is now available at all our shows and on our online store, www.stereof.com/store, by middle of next week. The album will become available on iTunes, Rhapsody, CD Baby. Amazon, etc. in about six weeks but make sure you are the first kid on your block to get a copy of the new disc!

Other news: we outfitted our van with a solar panel in an effort to be more environmentally conscious (for what it’s worth, we have wanted to do this for sometime now, not just because it is the hip things these days… although whatever the reason, it’s a good thing). We got the bad boy dropped in today and are stoked!!! Also, not too long ago Melissa received an artist sponsorship from NS Designs and is now rocking one of the sickest violins out there...

Check out www.thinkns.com for a look at all the instruments this fine company makes and some of the other artists on their roster (like Lou Reed, Laurie Anderson, Casey Driessen, and our friends from Montana Skies to name a few). Melissa will be getting a fancy little write up with all the trimmins soon so we’ll make sure to pass along a link to that once it is up.

That’s it for now, NM, AZ, CA, and CO on the agenda for the next few weeks. We’ll keep you posted with all things TSF and look forward to seeing you out there!!!!!

Haven't been the best with keeping on this... but...

We just played on KRFC Live at Lunch today and they were kind enough to pass along a disc of the show. We picked a few songs out of the show and have them available for your downloading pleasure right here! We've been mega-busy and have posted some video from recent shows out here in Colorado. (All that jazz is on YouTube and we'll be posting them individually later...)

It was quite nice out here in the Rockies the past few days and then today, it began snowing. It is still snowing. When we awake it will still be snowing. When we are loading in for our last Colorado show of this tour it will still be snowing. Then, as soon as we head out east (late tomorrow evening/very, very early Thursday morning) for Omaha, it will stop snowing and will be sunny and 50 degrees. Despite that, we've had a wonderful time out here in the Mountain West and tomorrow-barring any distracting, beautiful weather when we wake up-we'll post some show pictures to prove it!

So, Nashville was a blast. We took a trip back in musical history to perform at The Springwater Supper Club and Cafe. Imagine post-war America in the early 50's, gathering all your friends from school to come down to your Dad's garage and listen to you play songs thru a shitty sound-system, there's greasers and jocks, there's prom queens and promiscuous queens, there's plenty of good cheer. Well, that's what it was like. I mean, look at the stage backdrop... it's like something out of a David Lynch film...
These photos are curtosy of our good friend, David Clark. We pressed onto Memphis and played at Neil's Music Room with our good friends, Grupo Jobu.
The following night began the Missouri slugfest (which we still have one round to go). Spirits are high, the days are getting longer, and the mountains of Colorado lie off in the distance.... with the right kind of nose you can almost smell that mountain air.

OK, then..... It's been quite a while since we jotted a little something in here, and I think it's high-time we get back on the blog train. We have been pretty busy since our last post that I see... we had a whole other tour up to the Northeast which was one of the more exciting ones (surprising that we didn't post a single thing about it!), took the winter months off to record an album which we are super pumped about!!! There are three new songs that we have posted all over our sites and we will be releasing a three song "Sampler CD" from the album at all of our shows leading up to the final release. The album is called, "You Are Having a Wonderful Time," a-la our friend Cameron and his witty remark a few years back. We have embarked on our Spring Tour which will encompass both The West and The East with many stops along the way... We got started in Knoxville, TN the other night and were pleasantly surprised to see so many folks come out to support and listen to music, especially on Spring Break!We played an awesome punk/old school Rock n' Roll bar in Nashville, TN last night (pics coming soon) and it's on to Memphis this evening to play with our good friends, Grupo Jobu, at Neil's Music Room. BAM!!!
