We want to thank all of you who we saw and shared moments with in Adelaide over the weekend. Saturday night we had the experience of playing to the biggest crowd we've played to yet = 50,000 People at the Adelaide Oval. Also, thank you to friends and family who came to see us at the South Australian Single launch of Hurricane at Pirie & Co. on Sunday night.
Great times to say the least!

Our new single Hurricane has now arrived on Australia and New Zealand's digital shores!
This is a song that was recorded in Williamsburg, Brooklyn in the early parts of 2014. Recorded at Rola Pola Studios, engineered by Andy Baldwin, produced by Kevin Killen and mixed by Ken Thomas.
On Wednesday morning we were asked to perform on The Morning Show on Chanel 7 here in Australia, an opportunity we gladly said "YES" to.
Tuesday evening we flew up to Sydney, had a bite to eat, and headed straight for a rehearsal studio to work out an acoustic version of our new single "Hurricane".
With little sleep, the following morning we drove to the Chanel 7 Studios in Sydney, and widened our eyes enough to see, while we performed at 9.50 AM EST on national television.
If you didn't see it live, watch it here:
