Collaborators

We're lucky -- we have amazingly talented friends. Below are some of the incredible people we collaborate with on the ever-growing list of projects, records, schemes, plots and plans that keep getting cooked up. We'll sleep when we're dead. In the meantime, let's make more art.

Artist in Residence

We're proud to say that Scott McCormic is our current Artist-in-Residence. 

He has already designed several record covers for the band, including the cover for the national release of BEAUTIFUL EMPTY, the band's new EP, SIDE3, as well as the cover for band's first single "Wide Open World".  He is currently working on a series of art pieces inspired by the band's music.  Those art pieces will manifest in a variety of forms, ways and places... you'll see.

ARTIST STATEMENT

Weltschmertz - physical reality will never match the creative vision of the mind.

I make art because I have to. If I were a numbers man, I’d have to be an accountant. If I were a businessman, I’d have to abandon all manners of ethical choice. But, I’m a creative man. So I have to view the world as a malleable entity. I think John and I are the same loving hands teetering on the brink of insanity: We easily can skew our vision to fit the words that want to come out of our mouths. We can twist the reality that surrounds us to make sense of our own perceptions. We inspire each other. We can surpass concepts of what we think people want to see or hear, and create together an art form that people genuinely have no choice but to be a part of. The true creative being lies in the confidence that art is bullshit. There is only us being us. And, there is art that resides dormant in everyone…John and I just let it out. And I’m proud of that.

ABOUT SCOTT McCORMICK
Scott embodies a strange, wide and very deep set of talents.  He's a writer, singer, musician, raconteur, graphic designer, photographer, and fellow whiskey swiller of the finest proportions.  He's also a great friend.  You should hear the song he wrote about Christmas... it will break your craggy old heart.  I think I owe him $20.  ~ John C.
