Grounds

This past week was a busy one for us, but we loved every second of it! Last Sunday, we played Amberlight’s album release show with Frog Tongue! Wednesday, we made our Indy debut at Melody Inn with Everroad and DownShift Music! We want to give a big thanks to everyone involved with that show and putting us on, we had a lot of fun! Then, we ended it all last night with the toga party with our friends in Contrøller, Wolves Of Oz, and Withered Veins! It was an amazing show, we will have to do it again soon! Thanks for everyone who came and supported us and the other acts at these shows, it means a lot!

Calling all cool cats! We're providing local support for Edge of Destiny on their Soul of Fire Tour on the 18th of this month with our good friends in Contrøller! We'd love to see you all out there! Maybe buying a shirt or a cd??!? (We spent a lot of money on those just for all of you....)

Attention cool cats, cat kings, and Nat King Coles! In preparation for our upcoming record, GROUNDS wants to know YOUR first record. What was the first album/cd/cassette you purchased with your own money? Do you still like it? Does it hold a place in your heart to this day? Let us know! Alex's first ever album is Move Along by the All American Rejects.

"The first record I ever bought was Move Along by The All-American Rejects. My brother and I bought it out of the Scholastic Bookfair catalog and I listened to that CD a lot! It is a deeply nostalgic record and I think it holds up incredibly well! It Ends Tonight still gets stuck in my head regularly."

We just finished a great day 1 of recording at Chipped Tooth Audio! We're excited to carry that momentum into day 2 amd start putting our debut record together.

Speaking of debut records... continuing with our prompt from yesterday our bass player Logan picked his favorite debut album. Panic! At The Disco's "A Fever You Can't Sweat Out"

Logan: "A Fever You Can't sweat out is the first album I remember connecting to on a personal level. I was never into musicals or plays as a kid, and I suppose this scratched that same itch. Listening to and singing along AFYCSO was one of the ways I could be expressive and campy at a time where I didn't feel safe coming out of the closet."

What's your favorite debut record?
