listen to our brand new record, "how to cook everything"

This record means a lot to us, so we hope you give it a chance to mean something to you! We’re looking forward to spending the next few weeks on the road, then coming home to a big, bombastic, and thoroughly heartwarming release show in our hometown.

Thanks for your time and attention - I hear there’s a big market for that these days. Put us on a playlist or give us a shout online if you feel compelled (or just shoot us a message if you’re not into the whole social media thing).

And RSVP to our hometown Columbus release show to pull out all the stops with us on 2/21.

With a whole bunch of gratitude,

Sam Bodary and Hello Emerson
