We hope you all had a very wonderful holiday season and have started 2012 wonderfully... we certainly have.
For the past few weeks we've been recording a NEW ALBUM at Vudu Studios in Port Jefferson with Steve Haigler (Brand New, The Dear Hunter, The Pixies, As Tall As Lions). Today will be our last day of tracking, and we're really pumped to be introducing some new tracks into the mix!
Because of all the work we've been putting into the record, you probably realized we haven't been playing around that much. Once we start to get the release in order that'll change real soon, and hopefully we'll be able to start visiting more of you who are a bit farther than where we usually are able to travel.
Nick has been doing a fantastic job at video updates, which you can see below:
That being said, Nick hasn't been at the studio this week while Jon, Kaleena, and I record vocals so we haven't been quite as camera-active. You'll just have to trust us, we're recording vocals and the studio smells a lot better since the girl to guy ratio has increased dramatically.
On that note, time to hop in a vocal booth and get to work. See you all real soon!

Elmira College this Friday!
Hey all!
Hope October is treating you well! Just wanted to send out a quick announcement as we are playing smack dab in the middle of New York State (with the band up in Syracuse and me down in NYC, this seemed like a nice midway point): Elmira College! We'll be performing at the Campus Center Dining hall at 9:30pm. Not sure on all the details, but it appears to be free (will update when more information comes my way!)
Also, we have a CMJ showcase coming up at Arlene's Grocery! Click here to rsvp via facebook.
And thanks to everyone who keeps voting for us! We've made it to the 2nd round of the People's Choice Awards for the Syracuse Area Music Awards this year! Keep up the voting, and thanks so much for your continued support! The voting process goes on for quite a while, so really, we do appreciate every vote :)
Take care and see you all soon!
xx

Oh dear, we have some catching up to do...
Sorry folks, it's definitely been a whirlwind of craziness at TSE camp lately, but so much has been going on!
First off, did you see our great interview with Artistdirect? They gave some some great front page action (situated right between Tyrese and the Chili Peppers... not too shabby if you ask me). Many thanks to Rick Florino for the amazing interview, it was so much fun chatting with him!
Secondly, we are playing OPENING DAY of the NYS Fair! That's right folks, hitting the big time at Chevy Court so that you can nestle into one of the picnic tables with something tasty on a stick and watch us play at 5pm for FREE!
The Syracuse Post Standard's Mark Bialczak wrote a great little article after catching up with him recently on our feelings about playing the fair, and what we've been up to lately.
I also spoke with Jim Reith on WSYR news radio 106.9 on Friday to keep him up to date (one of our very favorite people in the Syracuse area) with everything TSE and otherwise.
See? I told you it's been nuts! But we wouldn't have it any other way.
So... see you at the fair on Thursday? Jon and I will also be heading onto Bridge Street that morning, so tune in, or if you're headed to the fair early we will be hanging with you all day!
Love you all, and stay away from those mosquitoes!
xx,
Kay

Our most recent trip to the lovely NYC metro area.
Hey guys!
It's been a busy week at the TSE camp! We've been hustling our little tails off, and a lot of new and exciting things have happened! Like many of you are aware (and we know this because we saw you) we had a show at Arlene's Grocery on Wednesday at the staggeringly early 8pm showtime, but you guys were troopers and got there straight outta wherever you were and made it happen! We're so glad so many of you could make it out! And for those of you who didn't, fear not! We are returning Wednesday, May 24th at 9pm at Arlene's Grocery (mark your calendars!).
However, BEFORE the show we had the distinct pleasure and honor to do a photo shoot with the legendary Kevin Mazur, and below is an EXCLUSIVE behind the scenes look at what went down! As soon as we can unveil the latest photos (and yes, folks... Nick is in these!) we will, but let me tell you, they look FANTASTIC.
Many thanks to Kevin Mazur, Patrick Confrey, Ken Sunshine, Brian Magallones, Nick Barose, Legend Rivera, Nikki Fontanella, Jennifer Mazur, Lauryn Levin, Michael Roma, and everyone else at Sunshine, Sachs, and Associates for making that day rule like no other!
