Boise show announced!

Been an incredible Summer so far! Amazing time in California in early July, and now on a series of regional festivals. The UMS last weekend in Denver was awesome once again. And very thankful for all the great bands we’ve been playing with as of late. Most of the rest of our Summer shows are in Idaho and Wyoming, but there will be some more NW dates announced soon for the Fall. However, most of the Fall will be dedicated to writing and recording a new album. Full remaining Summer dates below.

Our buddy Joseph Von Stengel out in NY sent us this incredible 8 bit animation for Big News off of our recent Benchwarmers EP. Surprised us with it last week. We were floored. Very excited to share it with y’all. Welcome to Finn Riggins the video game

day 4 tour with Built To Spill // crazy halloween video

first three shows with BUILT TO SPILL and DISCO DOOM in the bag. pretty incredible experience thus far. Eugene was really wild last night and both Portland shows were awesome, especially the second night… not to play favorites, but it definitely stepped it all up a notch…. so good to see so many old and new friends. been loving playing, but been really excited about seeing BTS so many times in a row. such an amazing band. each night very different and what a catalog of rad songs! very thankful for them giving us this opportunity and for treating us so kindly….

enjoying a day off in Portland today… head to Bellingham tomorrow, then up to Vancouver, BC which we’re really excited for… then a couple of Seattle shows and we wrap it all up in Spokane on Saturday. so very exciting. also, hope you’ve been enjoying the fun perspective that Rachael’s been providing in to the Finn Riggins adventureland…

this video from our Halloween backyard show in Las Cruces was just called to my attention. not much for visuals, but the audio is pretty awesome and hilarious. it was a wild night. here’s an audio glimpse. this is MAHONEY. it was the end of our set as midnight was rolling around in the chilly New Mexican air…

love you all,
