Introducing: The Early Risers!
After playing together for over three years, and tours that have taken us clear across the country, Ashley Storrow and I have finally taken things to the next level by starting to perform under our new duo name: The Early Risers. Stay tuned for the new website, new shows, and….(drumroll please!)…a new album!
Kickstarter Fully Funded!
Actually, it gets even better: thanks to our fabulous Kickstarter backers, we surpassed our goal of $8,000, and raised nearly $9,500! Recording is now underway. The tracking is nearly complete. Now, it is on to editing, mixing, mastering, design and promotion. Stay tuned!
