Dear Friends,

I sit here tonight at 2 AM for two reasons… ONE: It has been a very long time since we have blogged, seeing as this is a blog website and there isn’t much blogging going on (except of course Chase, who does a fine job of keeping you all up to date), and TWO: I wanted to let you know about the goings-on of Lórien and our friends.

We are blessed to be part of an amazing community here in Nashville. Every single one of our friends have amazing talents and are never afraid to pursue them, no matter the number of Starbucks White Mochas they have to make or how many students they substitute teach. For those reasons, I figured we should let you know about some cool things that are happening. First off, our good friend and roommate Andrew Belle will be featured on Grey’s Anatomy tonight (tonight being Thursday… I always feel weird saying tonight whenever its that weird morning/night time 2 am stage). Anyway, you might like the show or you might not, but regardless, listen up for Static Waves in the background somewhere. And if you haven’t already bought his latest album, The Ladder, check it out (www.andrewbelle.com).

In other news, our good friends Farewell Flight are on tour. We have known and toured with them for years now and they are the best band you’ve never heard. Seriously, if you don’t believe me, go to their myspace and listen. If you like what you hear, they’re playing all sorts of dates all of over the east side of our great nation. So go support some live music, and tell them Lórien sent you.

As for us, we are writing, recording, writing, recording, eating, and then recording eating while we write. It’s a fun process, but the only downside is that we don’t really get to come out to our favorite venues and play for you guys. Actually, we do have one show coming up and it is a Haiti benefit concert @ The Mercy Lounge in Nashville with Shirock, Katie Herzig, The Family Tree, and Heidi Rojas. 100% of proceeds go to the relief effort in Haiti, so come on out for a great cause. Join our facebook group and invite everyone you know!

That is all for now.

Peace,
Thomas

P.S. The people who brought you Planet Earth have a new show called Life. Watch it! It is awesome. Animals are the coolest. Oprah isn’t quite as good as Sigourney Weaver or that old British guy, but it is still quality I assure you.

Hey everyone, hope you are all doing well. Sorry it has been so long since the last blog! I suppose you deserve to be updated so here goes. We’re all keeping bush while off the road, working our day jobs to make ends meet. We are excited to get back on the road in January. Those dates should be up soon.
Before then, we are super excited to play a show with our great friends in The Kicks and Brenn on dec 12. It’s going to be a holiday show and I’m sure some special treats will be in store. And the best part is, it’s only $1!
That’s december 12 at 12th and porter for $1. See you there?
We have some more things planned for the holidays but you’re just going to have to wait to find out.
Until then, I hope everyone has a happy thanksgiving.
