New videos and North American / European tours

2012-10-18 10:00 by TravisB

Lovely peeps, thank you to everyone who came out on our North American tour! We had such a fabulous time, played some wonderful venues, saw so many exciting cities we'd not visited before and made many new friends. Can't believe two months of shows are behind us already- you know they've been great times when they fly by!

Thank you again to the many inspiring musicians we played with along the way- Jonti, Missy Higgins, Chairlift, Zammuto and GIVERS.

You may remember some of the new visuals we had in the show. Lots of folks have been asking me to put them online, so here are two new pieces!

Dig Your Own Hole
