   About Photons
We're Photons. We just released our new Glory! EP in June 2009. CDs (which include a comic book) are available exclusively at shows or from Insound. MP3s can be found on iTunes, Amazon and eMusic.

We're also hard at work with writing and recording our first full-length album! Unfortunately, that means no more shows for the rest of 2009. See you in 2010!

By the way, our debut Photons EP from October 2008 is now sold out of hard copies, but it's still currently available through digital music retailers.

You can also follow us on Twitter: twitter.com/wearephotons.



Lots more Photons videos at youtube.com/wearephotons.

I love you. Hope that doesn't make our relationship uncomfortable... Dancing last night was amazing. You guys are really fantastic. Also, you've got excellent moves. Great show! Come back to Nevada City when you're ready to do another show! Or Santa Cruz... either one.
