If you’ve been a supporter of ours over the past several years we very much hope you’ll take a moment today to go follow Alex’s project Cutouts, and listen to the brand new single “Cowgirl”
It is devastatingly good and features our bud Tomberlin lending her hauntingly beautiful voice to create an amazing duet.
John MacKay, who you may recognize from his work on several visual endeavors for NOL, helped put together the very spectacular video.
Abe Seiferth, who you may know from his production work on our 1st & 2nd LP, also jumped in on the new Cutouts recordings.
In essence it’s heartwarming to see our community of creative & immensely talented friends all come together to make something this truly great, so give it all the love you can and tell your 10 closest friends about it 🤝
Rumor is there may even be a Cutouts album in early ‘25 so engage accordingly on all platforms if you’d like to follow along… 👀

Just put up the extended cut of Across That Fine Line we did for The Late Show w Stephen Colbert - had to cut like 2 minutes out of it to be the right length for TV so just wanted to you to see the original context. We're in California now getting ready to start the next leg of our US tour so check our previous community post for those dates + Europe! First show is tomorrow in San Diego.

March 2nd in Baltimore is the first show of the US/Canada Spring Tour - we'll be on the road until April 8th, and then flying over to Ireland just a few days later to start our European Spring Tour.

Hey ya'll
Just a reminder that the other week we put out our video for This Fractured Mind, directed by our friend James Thomson. It was beautifully shot on 16mm and we're really proud of what we made together.
