Hello, we're The Muttering Retreats, but you probably already know us as Cari, Chris and Tim. We formed in late 2006 from the ashes of a few other projects. Now the three of us have some big plans for 2007, the first and foremost being an attempt to be the most polite band in the history of pop music. Ok, the most polite in Ohio. Ummm... we'll make sure the door doesn't hit you on the way out. Please enjoy our music and tell your friends!

Yes, I enjoyed the show last night. ^_^

"Real Estate" was my favorite. It makes me want to rise up against the ruling class. I have the power, for I control the means of production!

I tried going to your show tonight. And failed. Miserably.

I left kind of late, then there was this really bad detour on one of the roads that I took, and finally, when I got to the road that the venue was supposed to be on...

I just couldn't find it. I went up and down Pearl Road a couple of times and just couldn't see it!

I'm sorry. :(
