   About the rainy states
.. established in 2007, the rainy states are a rock n' roll group out of portland, oregon.

during their first year the group produced and engineered their debut l.p., "in basement air." after the release of the album in february 2008 the group continued to fortify their sound; a tight rhythm section layered with hauntingly beautiful guitar, vocal interplay.

currently the group is working on a follow-up to "in basement air," which will include the single, "new castle," available now as a 45 rpm record and digital download. look sharp!
