Hey everyone,

2007 is a new year.  And it also means a new band and new opportunity to rock CT!

What happens when you take the local CT bands "Farewell to Fairbanks" and "Exit 14" and put them in a blender?  Apparently, it's a new project called "Everyone, But Us".  www.myspace.com/everyonebutus

It's true; Doug and I have moved onto doing a new project with Jeff and Trent (both of "Exit 14" fame) and added a new drummer, Tim, and it looks very promising.  It's a lighter vibe than before, a bit more Counting Crows and Matchbox 20 inspired, but I think a lot of the folks that enjoyed Farewell will enjoy some of the new tunes that the band is working on.  It's catchy, it's poppy, it's melodic and has some great things going for it like 3 person vocal harmonies and solid songwriting. 

The past month has been a fun one and I'm eager to await the fully mixed down versions of the new 3 song demo the band has recently recorded.  I'm happy to say I continue to play lead guitar in this new project.  Doug has retired the acoustic guitar for now and is playing bass and doing backup vocals in the new project.  There may be a Farewell song or two that'll be resurfacing in the future as well ; ). 

For those that are interested, stay tuned to www.myspace.com/everyonebutus. 

Thanks everyone for the support with Farewell and I hope to see some of you this next year with the new project. 

Take care and Happy New Year!,
Chris
