NPR Tiny Desk Contest Submission!
We did it! In 24 hours we drove to Pittsburgh, recorded a Tiny Desk Contest submission, and submitted it right before the midnight deadline!!! A huge shoutout to my sister on drums, my bassist, Jason Rafalak, Benjamin T Wilson and Peter J.S. Regan who shot and edited this thing overnight, and Skip Sanders for capturing sound! And a HUGE thanks to my Pittsburgh friends who showed up with less than a day's noticed. This is my favorite song off the new album and it was so fun to perform live! Wish us luck!!! WATCH IT HERE!
