… is a New York based collective featuring the songwriting of Sam Mason Jacobs, and current and former members of a variety of local bands including The Vanity Fair, Wormburner, Utris, and Acquiesce
… has recently completed their debut album, Everything Is Good, a loosely conceptual album about a strung-out runaway in need of salvation
… is hung up on powerful anthemic melodies with lots of guitars, piano, strings, and tambourines
… sounds like American rock music, as interpreted by our friends across the pond, with various and sundry influences including Tom Petty, Wilco, Bruce Springsteen, the Stones, Super Furry Animals, Doves, Iggy Pop, Radiohead, The Jayhawks and others
… is alternately wildly ambitious and distractingly self-aware
… thinks it has written one of the all time great break-up songs in Track 4, ‘The Fuck Off’ despite the fact that it can’t/won’t ever see radio play
… would be incredibly grateful if you had the time to listen to the 43 minutes that comprise the album
… thinks you will be pleasantly surprised

Sam & Co. created a CD that is always a pleasure to pop in. I'm a huge fan of the opening song Honey Eyes.. then again I'm a sucker for fun, bouncy songs that get your head boppin. Erica is of course a classic. Nice work fellas.

An incredible debut! Several soundout songs (Clear the Brush, Erica) headline this remarkable EP which functions as a concept album to rival the recent amazing work of Craig Finn. Check this out!
