Man In A Crowd

We love making music and playing shows. We’re not that fond of writing third-person biographies and comparing our sound to a synthesis of indistinguishable post-genres. We hope our songs will get your feet stomping, your knees knocking, and your heart pounding – because that’s what they do for us.

'Don’t Paint Your Days So Gray' is our first album. We wrote it over a period of two years in living rooms, basements, rehearsal studios, and dive bars. We recorded it over a period of four months in Boston and New York City. It’s about looking in the mirror. It’s about learning to live with the imperfect person who is looking back. It’s about the kind of twilight that exists between youth and whatever comes after it. It’s the culmination of years of searching for direction, and the realization that there isn’t one. We’re really proud of it and hope you’ll give it a listen.

If you dig it, come catch us live some time. If it looks like we’re having a blast up there, it’s because we are. If you get the sudden urge to join in on the fun, then welcome to the party. If you want to scream all the words at the top of your lungs in a slightly off-key fashion, be our guest. If you want to sit at the bar and quietly sip your gin and tonic, we’ve been there too.

So come be part of the Crowd. It’s just the six of us in a room, playing the music we love and singing about the world that none of us has figured out yet.
