Just Say Hello-Video

This post is way overdue. I just recently remembered I even had this blog. None of that matters now. What does matter is that you have a look at this video for our song "Just Say Hello" from the Dreams You'll Never Find EP, directed by Gregory Carl Miller, who plays in I Do Not Love and I love I Do Not Love.

New EP-Dreams You'll Never Find

The latest EP is now available from Dufflecoat Records. It took nearly a year to make. I started recording songs for this EP in January 2012 and most of the songs were radically different from what eventually became the four songs on the EP. "Friends For Summer" started as a bosso-nova style song, while "Just Say Hello" was originally titled "Terrible Friend." It took nearly 12 months to record  because I sort of lost interest. I couldn't decide what style I wanted to have. I was nervous that no one would like it and I just kept second guessing myself. The more I did, the more depressed I became. I just knew I had to get it done before the end of the year and I just pushed and pushed until it came together at the last minute.

The Arctic Flow Featured in Indie Today

Doug from Indie Today asked me to contribute my thoughts about the songs from As Close To A Kiss As We Will Ever Be. It took a very long time to finally meet up, but it was worth it.  Click Here To See The Article

Doug is a long time fan and is a huge Horseshoes fan too. I think we may start a petition for Drew and Jacob to get that second Horseshoes album recorded. Who's with me?
