Hey here we are in the Philly metro talking about how we came to exist and why we changed our band name a zillion times...

http://www.philly.metro.us/us/article/2009/07/27/00/4212-82/index.xml

Seeing as how we'll be releasing two records this year (a 3" CD on fire musem, and our full-sized 5" self-released CD), we needed a name that was really awesome.  Time contraints made us make a quick decision.  We all thought Many Mountains might be awesome enough; it wasn't. 

MANY ARMS - way more awesome than many mountains.  At least that's what all the people close to us made us think. 

We are now and forever MANY ARMS.  For real this time.  If you want to name your band Many Mountains, go ahead. 

Many Arms (ricardo, nick, john)

Nick was interviewed by WHYY as part of a series on Philadelphia songwriters.
