   About As Fourty Sleeps
We've finally relocated to Chicago, and found an extraordinary new lead guitarist by the name of Julius Otto. Our first show is happening on June 5th at Bill's Blues in Evanston. We hope to add many more to the calendar in the near future, so if you're a Chicagoland local we'd love to have you come out and see us.

Still plenty of copies of our self-titled debut album available. Click the link below to check it out!
