Keep in touch.

There’s a Slashed Tires song, “Beach Ghost”, on the Wizards of the Ghost “Surf Songs” Comp™. The song was made at the Brodeo in Fremont, Seattle, on an amp once used by Earth on a record of theirs (it could have been Hex but I can’t recall). Read more about Surf Songs here and order it by sending an electronic-mail here: wizardsoftheghost@gmail.com
I’ll be playing a short set at the Garden of Sweden in Olympia, WA, and another the next day at Healthy Times Fun Club.
Dec 17, 8:00PM - Garden of Sweden (Olympia) w/ Mega Bog, Actual Birds, Jettycats
Dec 18, 9:00PM - Healthy Times Fun Club (Seattle) w/ Mega Bog, Junk Bones, Actual Birds, Captain Popovich
Also, possibly performing as part of Junk Bones in Bellingham, WA on the 11th?
