Hello,

well we've had a string of fun as anything shows. Playing the Noise for The Needy with Two Gallants was fun, playing Nectar with Plants and Animals the other day was fun, going to Portland with Elf Power, and playing with Blitzen Trapper, French Kicks, Vellela Vellela, Fleet Foxes, etc.



NOW, Dr. Baine the stick guy is going to Africa for two months effectively hiding our thunder.



So we had to think of a way to satisfy our raging workaholism and this is what we came up with-

John Totten is going to be doing a little solo tour with Marty from Blitzen Trapper (NW only) in late July. Watch for them in Seattle at the Sunset...

And also Chris Totten will be debuting his side project (which features the Johns and David), the Exploding High Fives, at the Tractor Tavern on July 20.

If you've ever said to yourself "I like the Quiet Ones but I wish they were poppier" than now is your chance to have your wishes fulfilled!
