Niagara Pre-Orders

Ok family, we’re going to try something new with this upcoming Niagara Falls record.  You can pre-order it right here, and we’ll ship it to you on February 17th.  Sound good?  Great.  Included with this fine piece of vinyl is a coupon for a free digital download, which has been beautifully provided by Apollo Audio.  

We’ll be performing the album in its entirety on March 25th at Johnny Brendas, in Philadelphia.  Joining in the celebration will be the mighty Kohoutek, as well as YahoWha 13, who are on their first tour in a long, long time!  This night is going to be truly amazing.
