Hi MIR,
Our violinist played with the NSYO last season. She really enjoyed your music for the NSYO/MIR collaboration.
We look forward to visiting with you at Riverfest 2008.

Hey Guys,
we just got a new song up on the myspace. Check it out! It started with a simple acoustic line and we jammed it out with a condenser mic recording our band. Enjoy!

Chris,
Bedroom Session

PS- No bass in it yet.. the bass player couldn't make it to this jam. Another warning is that it's in french although most of it is incomprehensible because I am not great at french/ was making up lyrics as I went.
