In 2001 the first studio album Air Bubbles was released locally in Tulsa, OK to a crowd that broke the venues attendance record and unbeknownst to the band was almost was shut down to a near violation of fire code restrictions with a line still wrapped around the building. Air Bubbles was nominated for Best Local Album in the 2001 Spot Music Awards and the band picked up their second Spot Music Award in the Best None of The Above category.
Between 2001 and 2003 the band supported Air Bubbles with extensive regional touring in Oklahoma, Texas, Missouri and Kansas before signing a national booking deal and traveling all over the region chalking up a showcase at Austins South By Southwest Conference, a tour through Colorado and appearances with Drums and Tuba, Fishbone, Slightly Stoopid, The Motet, Charlie Hunter, Jacob Fred Jazz Odyssey, The Dirty Dozen Brass Band and Leftover Salmon among others.

Hi there Rewake first of all we'd like to say thanks for being our myspace pal. We wanted to make sure you knew the reason incase we suddenly vanish off of your friends list. The movement we've started for indie artists has grown significantly and consumes all of our time these days. We seldom sign into our myspace account and this is making several people believe that we are ignoring them. We are not ignoring anyone, we wanted everyone to know that. What we're doing has become so busy we just don't have the time for myspace any longer, so in all honesty we are probably going to just close our myspace account.
Many people wanted to use us in the future so if you were one of those people make sure you bookmark the link below so that in the event that we do close our myspace account you won't loose contact with us. I wish you the best of luck in your music career. Thanks again for being our myspace pal.
