we owe him a coke
Johnny Anguish of Daykamp Music pointed his camera at us a week ago at the Middle East Upstairs, in his continuing quest to document the local music scene. We're grateful to be under his lens once again, you can check out his photos here!
01/16/13 :: On the radio, radio...
you gotta hear us on the radio
We'll be on The Boston Local Music Show on Unregular Radio Thursday afternoon around 3pm to talk about Saturday night's show at the Middle East, our ongoing feud with the Susan Constant to see who can be nicer, and who knows what else! Listen in, won't you?
01/02/13 :: First show of the new year!
and it's a doozy
Hello friends! Happy New Year!
We're happy to announce, even though we're in the midst of recording, that we have a show scheduled! We couldn't resist playing with our friends in the Susan Constant to help celebrate the release of their new EP - remember when they played our EP release last year? Well, now we're returning the favor!
The show is at the Middle East Upstairs on January 19th, check out our show listings for more info.
Cheers and looking forward to a great 2013 for us and you!
11/02/12 :: We Are Recording
and the list of terrible EP names is growing
Hello friends, just wanted to drop a note and say that we're in the midst of recording, which is bittersweet - we love putting the new songs together in the studio, but we don't love turning down gigs, and we've had some lovely offers from some lovely bands. But we will sacrifice in order to bring you more rock and/or roll in the near future!
We hope you are well and drinking a nice hot autumnal beverage. We'll see you soon!
07/27/12 :: Last show!
(for a while)
So we're gonna take a break for writing/recording the next thing (EP? Full-length? Movie? Broadway musical?), but before we go, we're gonna do one last show, and it's this coming Wednesday at PA's Lounge, where we've never played (well, Phil's played solo there, la dee dah.)
We'll be on at 9pm, not so bad for a weeknight. We hope to see you there!
07/11/12 :: Butterknife to play Somerville's ArtBeat Festival
we'll bring the beat, you bring the art
We are super-excited to super-announce we'll be playing the ArtBeat Festival in Somerville's Davis Square! The festival takes place Friday and Saturday, July 20th - 21st. We'll be playing the Elm St stage (right next to Redbones BBQ) at 2:30pm on Saturday. Hope to see you there!
06/29/12 :: Greetings!
we're still here
Here's a picture of us practicing in Kieran's garage last night. We're working on new songs, and we've got a couple shows coming up which we'll announce soon.
Just wanted to say hi.
