Friday Feb.16- Mercury Lounge, NYC
Saturday Feb.17- The Khyber, Philadelphia, PA

These shows will be a lot of fun. We’ll be selling a very limited edition wood block print poster. On the bottom of the poster will be a place for you to fill in your address and send it in to our label. And on the day of our release of ‘Anytown Graffiti’ the album will be sent to your house. Pretty cool right? We’ll also have some cool new merch stuff for you all.

PS- If you plan on coming to The Mercury Lounge we suggest you get there very early. This show will get extremely sold out and we want to see all of your lovely faces. And we promise this will be the last time. We’ll make sure there’s ticket sales from now on. Boo yah.
