Brave Baby 2012
January — Name change. Sucked ass. Happy now.
February — New bass player, miss the old one, love the new one. Did a run with Holy Ghost Tent Revival, some of our biggest shows to date. Tons of fun. Myrtle beach is way more depressing in the winter.
March — Keon turned 22, Christian turned 24. Boys turnin’ into dads. Who knew? Ryan went to Europe.  Somewhere in there the Spring Puke-uinox took place.
April — A few thunder clouds came through.
May — Keon graduated from CofC. Had a party. A friend got married. Played Hippodrome with our new friends Heyrocco.
June — Crunch time trying to finish the album. Enjoying the summertime in Charleston.
July — Epic fourth of July bash at 3 Charlotte Street.
August — Finished Forty Bells. Praise God. Â Ryan found out the meaning of life while recording Octopus Jones.
September — Keon went to see Bon Iver at Radio City Music Hall. Started talking with Dan McCurry from Hearts and Plugs. Christ spent 2 weeks in Norway.
October — Joined Hearts and Plugs. DIY bro. Came across a specimen named Steven Walker. Great guy. New band mate.
November — Decided on a January release for Forty Bells.  Ate some turkey. Played Ryan’s grandmother’s 70th birthday party. Shit was off the chain.
December — Bought gifts. Got paronoid about the release. Have a lot of work to do before the tour/release. Spent time with family back in Charlotte. Remembered that David Stringer is one of the greatest things to ever happen to SC music.  New Years at the SPS house.
