Video on the Way!

Here is just a snippet of the large amount of video content we’ll be putting out in the near future. This is “Scissors” from our July 3rd show at the EARL in Atlanta.

It’s Been a While…

CJ — Tue, 06 Jul 2010 20:41:40 +0000

Ah, the era of social media. It has made us lazy with the website updates; we stay on top of Facebook and Twitter, and neglect our own site! Sigh.

But oh buddy, lots of stuff has happened in the almost 2 months since our last update! For starters, we released our second full-length LP “Gesture of a Gentleman” (you can buy it here), and marked the occasion with an amazingly-fun show at the Star Bar. The night was recorded (in video and audio) and we’ll be posting clips online in the near future.

As many of you have no doubt noticed, we’ve been getting a fair amount of radio play these days – big ups to the WRAS crew for getting the ball roliin’ on that!

Just this past weekend, we performed alongside our good friends Blair Crimmins and Lindsay Appel at the EARL’s pre-Independence Day bash. The place was packed with beer-swilling musical patriots, and what a blast we had. Thanks a million to all who came!

A little tidbit about our horizon: we’re currently working on what will become our next record. This will be an EP containing brand new tunes, recorded with very eclectic instrumentation (ukulele, hammered dulcimer, banjo, piano, percussion, pedal steel, dobro, etc). We think you’ll love it! More on this soon…

Here Comes “Gesture of a Gentleman”

CJ — Mon, 26 Apr 2010 18:23:51 +0000

Our new album “Gesture of a Gentleman” is officially finished and will be ready for us to start sharing online later this week. The album contains 13 new songs and clocks in at almost exactly 1 hour. For the initial 250 copies, there will be 50 copies each of 5 different covers; below is one of the covers:

The album will first be available at our CD Release show at the Star Bar on May 15, and then in stores and online the next week.

Speaking of our CD Release show…. We are thrilled that our good friend ADRON has agreed to join us for the show! She will play an extended set, and then we will play for a good long while as well.

Album Update

CJ — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 15:07:13 +0000

We are currently putting the finishing touches our our new record, and we hope to have it ready to go by mid-April. And because we’re overachievers, we’re already planning our next couple of releases (more on that soon!).

Also, we added a little Facebook fanpage thing on the right of this page – if you aren’t our fan on Facebook yet…well, there’s no time like the present.

Last Night!

Recording Update

CJ — Fri, 29 Jan 2010 00:38:04 +0000

Just a quick update for ya – we’re working hard on the new record, now officially titled “The Gesture of a Gentleman.” Things are moving along quite well, and we’re going to shoot for a mid-spring 2010 release.

As we’ve been working on the album, we’ve been much better about updating our Facebook page than this site…so maybe you should head on over there if you haven’t already! We’ve been posting short video clips and photos over there as we go along.

We’ve also recently updated out YouTube Channel with a bunch of videos as well: www.youtube.com/user/afttd

More soon!
