Wow. What a great New Year’s Eve – another sold out show at The 8×10 in Baltimore! Couldn’t think of a sweeter way to cap off our busiest and most fun year yet. We are so grateful for everyone’s support over this past year. We’ve met some truly special people in 2012, and you all have made our lives full of love, hope and excitement.

2013 is going to be big. We’re so excited to have joined Hoplite booking and can’t wait to play more cities and play to new faces. We’re gonna hit all of our favorite markets along the way, and the plan is to keep climbing higher. So let’s get ready for big things, flockers. We’ll see you on the other side!

We’re Booked!

Pete The Pigeon — Wed, 19 Dec 2012 19:00:08 +0000

We’re so excited to announce our new union with Hoplite Music, joining the likes of Dopapod and Zach Deputy on a stellar booking roster! We look forward to taking our touring to the next level and to have more time to write new music. We can’t wait to see where this takes us.

We are taking this week off to get back in the studio to work on our next album, which we hope to release by this summer. It’s all happening so fast, and we couldn’t be more thankful for all the support.

It’s time to get down, get down, get down Baltimore! We can’t wait for our New Year’s Eve show at the 8×10, which is officially Motown-themed. The ideas are pouring in at practice, and we know you all will be ready to party like it’s 2013 with us! We got Dale and the Z-Dubs from Bethesda, MD opening the night, plus Baltimore’s own DELTAnine to close it out until 5am (or later). This is going to be a night to remember to say the least… costumes encouraged. Call the 8×10 directly to avoid extra fees (410) 625-2000. And the countdown begins….
