or do you get to tour much? Josh: At one point it felt like we were playing every weekend, but we’ve been working on our full length album so we have taken time off. Jeremy: Other than the last 2 months, while recording and me and my wife having our baby, we play out a lot really. No tours as of yet though. But we have branched out outside of local cities. Jeremy: We’ve had all types of inspiration. Mine personally comes from my love of music growing up. Just trying to write something that other people would rock out to the same way I grew up rocking out to my favorite bands. Anything from Korn, Metallica to Snoop dogg and Dr Dre. If someone wanted to hear your music where could they find it? Do you have a Soundcloud or ReverbNation account? We have a Reverbnation account and we have videos on YouTube as well Speaking of social media sites, do you think that online presence like Facebook or Twitter are important for a band? Do you guys use any? Josh: I think all of us and most local bands are experiencing the current love/hate relationship with Facebook, but the reality is that’s still how we are able to communicate the best with our fans. Stephen: Facebook is starting to be hard to deal with. With the sight dropping people who have liked our page who knows if Facebook can even be trusted for a local band to get the word out for shows? I have heard good things about twitter; but man...I’m old. Need a young buck to show us how to rock that shit. Jeremy: I feel it is key to a band for this generation to have those types of social media outlets. What kills it is things like facebook crippling bands making harder to reach fans unless you pay. I totally understand the business side of that for sites like that, but there has to be an easier way for up and coming bands to reach their new fans without breaking them. Make it easier for you to get your music out to new fans before having to pay. Youtube is a great outlet as you can get your music out with no cost, but then you still have to share it on some other social media for it to be seen. Do you guys play out much? Do only play locally first album and get it out to as many people as possible. Dave: Finishing our record at JP Audio Labs is certainly first and foremost on our minds. With the pace at which we have been accelerating I definitely see us getting this show on the road very soon. Stephen: I’m not sure. I am fairly certain we will still be writing and honing our craft; and would love to think that we have had a tour of some kind under our belt by that time. Jeremy: Touring nationally, playing with well known bands. Working on our second album in studio What’s your opinion of your music scene? A
