NEWS:
Until we get it up on myspace, here's a link to our
TV appearance on NBC.


Currently we are starting to record a double album.
Aiding us at various stages of this project are
Matthew from Cloud Cult and Ian, and Darren from Kid Dakota.
Also, engineer Brian Johnson (Coldplay, David Gray, Five for Fighting) from
Winterland Studios has been lending immeasurable help.
Lastly, we are playing different shows as a large rock band,
acoustic trio, and an audio/visual duo; depending on the circumstances.
Yes, we are busy little bees.....


Here's my latest interview on the Independent Stream
with local radio god Gary Holdsteady. ---Jeff


---TRAGEDY OF THE COMMONS CHARTED ON CMJ AT NUMBER 181
---THE SUPPORTING TOUR CRISS-CROSSED THE MIDWEST AND EAST COAST
---'TRAGEDY OF THE COMMONS' SALES ARE ESTIMATED IN THE THOUSANDS
---SONGS FROM THE FIRST ALBUM HAVE BEEN PLAYED ON MTV PROGRAMS
---PLAYED SXSW 07 TO CRITICAL PRAISE

“Skittish has released a distinctive and vibrant album that offers a refreshingly innovative reading of the much-popularized indie folk-rock genre...Tragedy of the Commons is an excellent example of how a compelling artist like Noller can explore a wide range of musical interests and make them work together. " 4/5
---- Jason Morelyle, MusicCritic.ca

181 on the CMJ College Music Charts in April 2006!!
---- CMJ Magazine

“Skittish is a band that has been skimming along under the radar, but that should change as soon as more of the people with great taste, who frequent mp3 blogs, hear the music. It's by turns, folksy and then indie flavoured, but more than these it's very, very good”
---- SixEyes BlogSpot

“It is quite possible that Skittish has put out the best album for the summer that I have ever heard...if you are looking for that perfect album to roll down the windows and crank up, then look no further it’s right here.”
---- All Ages Zine, Chicago 8-06

there are many caves in the mountains near my town. maybe youd be interested in living in one. im sure you could use a change in scenery and some new sources of inspiration. anyway, id be happy to put you up for a bit while you look for a cave thats to your liking.

now that we've relocated we wanted to drop a line and hopefully we're not to late to say happy new year.

Also, we've released two projects to start the new year, from Shawn Tracy and Jon Crocker, we would love it if you stopped by and gave them a listen...

i really wish there were as many sea monsters in the ocean as your map seems to suggest (background). that would make for some interesting evening news, but probably wouldnt bode well for our dreams of sailing the open seas on a houseboat. animals that breathe fire, real or imagined, earn my enthusiastic approval.

You've never had a gourmet lollipop? you need to get on that. They are amazing. And they aren't 50 bucks if you just buy one.

Also, I wish I could grow a gross mustache.

Last night, I was searching Froogle for those delicious Carousel Gourmet Lollipops. I found them, but they were 50 bucks, which is ridiculous. The song Carousel also showed up in my search. I followed the link, purchased the MP3, and fell in love!

I've got a few MP3s now, but I will be buying the CDs after Christmas (no money right now, of course).

So yeah. You are rad.

first of all: i had a blast watching you guys at club underground the other night.
