..I need to give a backstory on the band tho I never have. The front man Samuel T. Herring with a rhythym section of William
Cashion, Gerrit Welmers and Erick Murillo, who plays electronic drum kit. They are from N.Carolina to Baltimore x have been making
music since 2003 but lost band members and in 2006 they went crazy recording and in April 2006 and a self-released split CD with
Welmers' solo project Moss of Aura in January 2007. They recorded their debut album "Wave Like Home" with Chester Gwazda at Backdoor
Skateshop in Greenville, NC later that year. London-based label Upset the Rhythm released Wave Like Home in the Summer of 2008. The
cover art was designed by Kymia Nawabi, a former member of the band and of Art Lord & the Self-Portraits.
In late 2007/early 2008, the band relocated to Baltimore. The "Feathers and Hallways" 7" was recorded in Oakland, California, during
their first U.S. tour and was their first release as a focused three-piece. Their second album, In Evening Air, was recorded in the
band's living room in the historic Marble Hill neighborhood in Baltimore.
In 2009, the band signed to Chicago independent record company Thrill Jockey records following a year of solid touring, they
recorded their third album On the Water in Elizabeth City, North Carolina, and released it in the autumn of 2011.
In early 2014, the band announced they had signed to 4AD, who would release their new album, Singles, in March 2014. The band made
their network television debut on March 3, 2014, on The Late Show with David Letterman, performing the lead single "Seasons (Waiting
on You)".[2]Their performance on the show, particularly Herring's onstage antics, became an internet success, and garnered millions
of views on Youtube
