We'll be playing at Metro for the first time on Friday, Feb. 6 and we're pretty excited about it. The best part is... it's FREE! All you have to do is show up with our flyer before 9PM, which you can find below or at our website. The Ivorys, The Laureates, and Big Science will also be performing. Doors open at 8PM. It will be $8 if you show up after 9PM.

Feel free to print out a bunch of flyers and give them to your friends. It's a free show on a Friday night and it'll be a great time, so come get down!

If you'd like to let us know you're coming via Facebook, HERE is the event.

Our debut EP is all recorded and mixed! We're just waiting for mastering and manufacturing. It sounds great and we couldn't be more excited about it. If you'd like to hear one of the new unmastered tracks, you can check it out at our website, www.petlions.com

We plan on releasing the EP in late January, so check back soon for more updates.

We also have two shows coming up soon! We'll be opening for Yourself and The Air at Bottom Lounge on December 21st and headlining at Subterranean with Blah Blah Blah opening on Friday, January 2nd (only $6!). Hope to see you there!

We've been pretty busy over the past month getting ready to record our debut 5-song EP at the Gallery of Carpet with Brian Zieske, while still trying to fit in shows here and there. We're extremely excited to finally be in the studio and can't wait to have it finished! It's sounding fantastic so far. The title of the EP is still undecided, but we'll keep you all informed on that as well as when/where we'll be playing our record release show.

We do have a show with Audrye Sessions coming up pretty soon (Dec. 2nd - Empty Bottle) and we'd love for you to come support us.

Check back soon for more updates!
