Waiting to release this album, especially since it was finished two years ago may have been it’s downfall. With so much time to anticipate what it would be like, some may be more than a little disappointed.
I wanted to love [...]

A hardy handful of people braved cold, snow, and Sunday evening blues to make the trek to Gus’ Pub for The Establishment, Forces Fields, and Cousins. They were not disappointed.
