Biblical Wanderings: Mark 6:2-6
“Where’s he getting this from?” they asked. “What is this wisdom he’s been given? And how does he perform these miracles? Isn’t this the carpenter? The son of Mary, and the brother of James, Joseph, Judas and Simon? Aren’t his sisters here with us as well?” And they were boggled by h...

Straight from Austin, we drove over to Dallas to play a sweet venue called Club Dada. It was kind of a culture-shock coming from a well-run festival with a bunch of crew running the stage, to a small venue where it took us an hour or so to find the circuit breaker to run power. But thankfully the ve...

Biblical Meanderings: Mark 4:26-33
He also said, “The kingdom of God is like a man who scatters seed on the ground. Night and day, he sleeps and wakes, and the seed sprouts and grows, he knows not how. All by itself, the earth produces a crop. First the stalk, then the head, then full grain in the head. As soon as the grain is bein...

SD: After a short break from the road, we got the chance to play an early set at the Treasure Island festival in San Francisco. We were pretty excited from checking out the stacked lineup and kinda hoping we would escape the Seattle weather for a bit. Much to our dismay, we arrived into town along w...
Biblical Meanderings: Mark 3:22-30
recorded by a babbling brookAnd the scribes who had come down from Jerusalem were saying, “He is possessed by Beelzebub [Satan], and by the prince of the demons he drives out demons.” So he called them together and began to speak to them in parables.“How can Satan drive out Satan? If a kingdom...

SD: Right from Champaign we headed to Chicago to play the historic Thalia Hall. But before load-in, we had a taping for a public-access TV show farther into town. So we opted to play with mostly back-lined gear for the short, early performance to not put our second show later that night behind sched...

Bible Juices: Mark, Overview and 1:10-11
GENERAL OVERVIEWThere are four gospels in the New Testament which tell the story of the life of Jesus: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. Mark is currently believed to be earliest gospel of the four, because it is shorter and more ambiguous in many points, where the other gospels expand on the same stori...

SD: The day after we played The National in Richmond, we drove up to Baltimore to play this cool little venue called Ottobar. I remember the stage was pretty high for the room with our shins level with the faces of the audience. The green rooms were also super weird. One had a claw-foot tub right in...
January announcements
Hi all!At the start of every year going through Easter, I like to read through a gospel. This year, I thought I might share that journey, posting thoughts and comments on the readings once a week in lieu of a monthly newsletter. (Those on the letter tier will receive one letter a month compiled from...

SD: We met back up with John and the van at the St. Louis airport once we flew in from Philly. From there we jumped over to the Ready Room the next day to have our first ever show in St. Louis. It was this cute old venue with a small yet devoted crowd that was welcome since we were coming straight f...

After a few days rest coming home from Omaha, we were excited to make an addition we had been dreaming about since we started touring. I honestly forget who introduced us, probably a friend of a friend, but we all ventured up to Green Lake together after practice to meet up with John McRae to see if...
January Newsletter: Catching Up
Hello, beautiful Patreon people! It’s morning, I’m back in Seattle, and in honor of a year of getting stuff done, I am writing a non-grandiose newsletter surveying the scene in 2024. Today I need to bounce some stems to bring to our next studio session, which starts on Monday. Before that, a fri...

SD: In August we got the opportunity to play MAHA festival in Omaha. We flew in the night before, and pretty sure the festival booked us a hotel nearby because I remember it being a lot nicer/closer than we were used to. There was this big announcement before the weekend got started that Warren Buff...

Fresh off our festival set at Pitchfork, we played a local club show the next night at Chicago's Empty Bottle. We got the chance to hang with Jason Balla of NE-HI who I think at the time occasionally worked at the venue. It was our first show playing with Detroit's own Stef Chura, and kicked...

SD: We had a few days break before we flew back to the east coast for a couple festivals. The first one was at the South Street Seaport in New York for a one day fest called 4knots. It was at a sweet location on the piers of the East river surrounded by Manhattan skyscrapers and masts of the histori...

SD: After Glastonbury we drove down to another festival in the Netherlands call Down the Rabbit Hole. It was kind of in the middle of nowhere in the woods next to this big lake where festival-goers would take a dip in the afternoon heat. It was another one of those cool festivals that we only got to...

SD: From Belgium we drove up through France then crossed the channel to to the U.K. Once in England we made our first stop in Brighton to play The Hope & Ruin. The venue had a cool upstairs venue area above the pub below. I remember checking out a vintage shop nearby after soundcheck when we went se...
December Newsletter: A Better Story
What I see is all I’ve seenIn my sweetest sleeping dreams…One of my strongest early memories is waking up on Christmas morning at nine or ten years old, hours before anyone else would be awake. With nothing else to do, I laid in bed with my discman and listened to The Who Sell Out. Lingering in ...
