Hey all.
You have probably noticed the site has changed a bit. We’ve got a lot of changes going on in our camp as of late and thought a little internet haircut would do some good as well. The FMR.com forums have officially been retired. If you’d like to post a message to the band you can simply do so at the myspace or facebook pages. We check them often so please don’t feel like you no longer have a voice. We’ll also be adding some things in the near future to the site so keep an eye out for some of that.
We would also like to announce that we’ve been asked by the Everyone Orchestra to join a small midwest tour they’re embarking on in May and have graciously accepted. We are tremendously excited to be running the river with some incredible musicians and hope you’ll share the experience with us. Looks like some beautiful venues as well. You can either click the ad to the right or go to the schedule to learn more about that.
As for the album, we’re writing at a feverish pace and you may have noticed a few new songs gently slip their way into a pretty consistent rotation on the setlists. ‘Love and Whiskey’ and ‘Oh Elijah!’ are a couple of the new ones that we’re quite excited about. Don’t be surprised if you hear a bunch of new songs in the coming months as we’re definitely going to be giving all of the new stuff a pretty thorough road test before heading into the studio.
Festival season is just around the corner and we’re excited to have been asked to join the roster of some pretty sweet ones already. Operation Adaptation is coming up as well and if you don’t know, now you know. Spread the word.
Finally, just a quick note. We bit the bullet and got some press pictures taken the other weekend when we were in Minneapolis. The above photo, and many more, were taken by the very talented Emma Freeman. Check her work out at www.emmafreemanphotography.com
That’s all for now. Look for more from me on a pretty regular basis.
It’s got to get warmer. It’s got to.
Much love,
RN
