InfluencesWe are influenced by these bands who keep us going even when we're out of steam:

Jes Kramer, Jake Stilson and the MiMiMis, GrrRopolis, Great Lakes Myth Society, Canada, Frontier Ruckus, Mason Proper, Son And Heir, Annie Palmer, Nate Kalish and the Wildfire, Matt Ten Clay, Chip Fundy, Johnny Headband, The Hard Lessons, Bear Hugs, Beard, Man At Arms, Fields of Industry, High Places, Glowfriends, Mr. Squid, Sensual Armed Forces, The Pop Project, The Giving Tree, Happy Hour, A Paschal Circus, Deep Sea Creatures...

And any other band or fan that feels as good about the current Michigan climate as we do.

Sounds LikeA cricket rubbing its legs together...only the 'cricket' is a giant, and its 'legs' are a giant flying-V guitar, and it's not rubbing it on anything, he's just playing "Immigrant Song" by Led Zeppelin and crying while eating a sandwich...only with keyboards and stuff.
